<div dir="ltr">You are unlikely to be able to copy the contents of a DVD without circumventing an Access-control Technological Protection Measure (ATPM), and thus contravening prohibitions in the Copyright Act</div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">So that says it all I guess as I wouldn't expect a commercial DVD to not have some copy protection so any attempt to copy it to be illegal.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">So, do any schools have a video/DVD pool to access for student use ? or commercial products that can do the job ?</font></div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">We’re allowed to copy it, in any form, if its for educational use.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">The general ‘educational use’ bit is always trumped by any more specific clause, such as ‘access’ TPM. That includes trying to watch Foxtel without hiring
one of their set top boxes, as well as ripping a commercial DVD.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'"></span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">Interestingly, unlike America, it is now legal to circumvent regional TPM, so using a player firmware hack or computer software to get around Regional Coding
of DVDs is fine.</span></p>
