Converting "Rental" WMVs to Avoid Expiration

[tko51]

I have a question that I do not believe has been addressed yet.

As some of you may be familiar, some WMV's online are purchased for "rent" and come with an expiration date i.e. 48 hrs.

I was wondering if converting a WMV with an Expiration into VCD/SVCD/DIVX/etc would allow me to keep the video in the newly converted format without losing it to expiration.

Or are these WMVs specially to prevent this sort of conversion which I fear may be the case

Thanks for reading

Because it's not allowed in our forum. You are only alllowed to discuss how to backup/convert video that you have bought / own. No rentals backuping.
