QUESTION
Can I make a copy of a DVD for personal use?
Asked on Feb 06th, 2013 on Entertainment Law - Nevada
More details to this question:
The DVD's I bought come with a free digital copy code that is supposed to work with portable players but the format isn't compatible with my player. I want to burn a copy to my laptop so I can convert it to a compatible file, but I don't want to infringe the copy right law.

YES, it is my understanding of the law that you can make a copy of your purchased for your own personal use at home.

See Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc., 464 U.S. 417 (1984). You probably will like the answer.
