Before everyone comes up with "illegal" issues about this. It might be importent of me to explane something. Under the laws of Denmark, when you buy a movie, music, game, you own that CD/DVD, meaning you can copy it for own or family use in summerhouse, your cars, your laptop, your other PC´s and if you want to also your gettoblaster and so forth. That means if you once have bought it, you can never have an "illegal" copy. This is to prevent compagnies from rippin you off. Allmost everyone makes copy of their games and movies as children uses these media so much that at one point they become useless, broken or simply disapear from the planet. W1

You own the physical copy of the product, you don't own the copyrights to it.

Its a bit like licence fee or pay per view. Once you have bought it, you can watch it on whatever tv you like and with whom you like. W1

You own the physical copy of the product, you don't own the copyrights to it. Exactly, and if you have bought it once, you can make all the copies for own use, "only for own use" you want, under the Danish laws. You may not sell copies!. But you may sell or give away the original as a present. W1

I might add, that this have been a big political issue over the years in Denmark. And I guess, that when the producers make a product wich is invulnerable or make it so, that if its worned out you can get it replaced with a new one for free (or the cost of a DVD media $ ½), this law will change. W1

Also in Denmark it legal to buy a video stabilizer, I have one, which make you able to copy everything even coded music and films. You can buy it here; videostabilizer.dkBut be aware that you might not use it by law in your country! W1
