Fritz Attaway, the MPAA's vice president who shows up at all the DRM meetings, explains to the press how the world works in Bizarroland, where being able to make a backup of your DVDs is bad for you.
"There is no right in the copyright law to make backup copies of motion pictures, so the whole argument that people should have the right to make backup copies of DVDs has no legal support whatsoever," said Fritz Attaway, executive vice president of the MPAA.
"It's against consumers' interests to permit devices that make backup copies," he added, "because there is no way that a device can distinguish between a backup copy for personal use and making a copy for friends, family acquaintances or even selling on the street corner."
(Thanks, Brian!)
