Music is not protected, but you really need to have the physical legal disk if you rip to digital format.
But...DVD and BLU-RAY movies are different, they both have DRM protection. The moment you crack DRM (Digital Rights Managemnt) to rip the DVD, you've violated Title I of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. 17 U.S.C. 1201 prohibits circumvention of DRM.
So QVIVO may offer movie backup, but legally it must be a movie without original DRM protection, i.e. one of your own home movies made on your digital camera or camcorder.
I really don't know how places like NetFlix get around DRM to digitally stream DRM content, but they must have some deal where they recompense the copyright owners.
Why can't we store our DRM content digitally, whether on our own home storage device or on a cloud like QVIVO? I wish we could, given that we have legal physical copies.
Not that I agree with the Motion Picture Association of America, but am I wrong to think or say it is illegal to digitize DRM content as a home user?![]()
