How about:

I Own CCE

1. Because it's really worth spending $2000 to backup my own DVDs
2. Because it's really worth spending $2000 to backup Blockbuster's DVDs
2. Because my company bought it for me
3. I pretend I bought it just to appease the Moderators

1-Pass

My wife/girlfriend won't let me make any passes.
My nickname isn't "crash and burn" because of my computer skills.

I know the moderators will never allow this poll but how about...
...How many people are genuinely backing up dvd's and how many are copying?
I appreciate this will demonstrate the level of for what this site is used for (and I know Baldrick is quite rightly very keen not to advocate warez of any kind), but I for one would like to see the numbers.

That's why I often do Elvis impressions and handstands in the office (helps me get through the hum-drum of the day!).
