I'm not one of the developers committing code neither am I contributing 
code towards this so my opinion may be of less note here than others. If 
freevo can play dvds now which are copy protected then is there not an 
issue already? Apparently not, is this because freevo actually passes 
off this to xine etc? Is it also not the case that this encoding package 
would work in the same way and could be used to backup personally owned, 
non copy protected DVD? Or if it's extended it could be used to 
re-encoded recorded tv. I really can't see why this wouldn't be included 
but then again IANAL.
