Hi all, just wanted to share a story from Yahoo!

Aside from the "Jailbreaking" ruling, three additional rulings on copy-protected software and videos were announced to allow copying of those materials in specific circumstances.

hmm, thats great, there are many folks must are very happy!!...
But I have read some opinions from ifunia that just make sure whatever you rip is covered under 'fair use', then that's ok.
