On Linux, I believe it is verboten to even have the software to play the DVDs, as DeCSS descrambles the encryption code.

Ridiculous, as I should have a right to view DVDs I own on a PC or laptop which I own.

The RIAA and their thugs are so nazi-like about this, and the US courts so whipped, that one group even got sued for printing the DeCSS source code on tee shirts.

Im not sure or not but I think its legal to make a "backup" copy of
something for your own use, but you cant give it to your friends.  Then
again, I may be wrong on that.

Illegal to sell, but not illegal (if you've purchased it legitimately)
to
make copies to give to your friends - that falls under "fair use."

Excepting that in most places thats totally illegal especially if
you're
selling for profit. Some would even say its immoral because you're
essentially taking money out of someone else's pocket.
