Hi - I work at Public Knowledge and coordinated our exemption request. While our exemption request was specifically about DVDs, the Copyright Office's rejection was much broader. Essentially, the Copyright Office found no evidence that space shifting as a practice was fair use. That means that, as far as the Copyright Office is concerned, space shifters are infringing on copyright. That would include anyone who copied a work from one medium to another - regardless of whether or not it was protected by DRM.
