When you rent a movie there is NO allowance for copying it. The one backup copy
is for things you actually own. You don't own a movie you've rented, the same
is true if you borrow it from your buddy.
If you wanted to watch it later you'd need to either rent it again or buy it.
Once you've bought it you'd be allowed one copy for a backup.

I rented a movie DVD and wanted to transfer it to videotape for later
veiwing but couldn't because DVDs are now copy protected. So much for
"fair
use" - they didn't even give me a chance to be honest or fair!

Not true at all, many Linux distros have a DVD player app built right in.
Also not true for .mp3 files.
I believe you mean the MPAA, the RIAA is the music industry.
Frankly while I'm not in love with the MPAA in any sense what Andrew had
described is illegal for a reason. Its sensible that you shouldn't be allowed
to copy a rented movie, if you could easily do that why would you ever buy one?
The same is doubly true of rented computer (and especially Playstation) games.
DVD producers are in business to make money, they don't put out disks just
because they love doing it. When companies cease to make money they cease to be
companies then then no new DVDs get produced. So some level of protection makes
sense.

On Linux, I believe it is verboten to even have the software to play
the
DVDs, as DeCSS descrambles the encryption code.
Ridiculous, as I should have a right to view DVDs I own on a PC or
laptop which I own.
The RIAA and their thugs are so nazi-like about this, and the US courts
so whipped, that one group even got sued for printing the DeCSS source
code on tee shirts.

The engine stays in, but everything else comes out. Everything. Book
says it's a 12 hour job, but my highly regarded and very expensive
eurocar indy warned me that on a 23 year old car, it would probably
take about 20 hours, due to aging/deteriorated fasteners and
components. He wouldn't even do it, as he said it would end up
costing more than the car was worth to do correctly, and even then
could cause other problems by disturbing lots of things that in their
old age would prefer not to be messed with. That's why I was so glad
to find a minimally invasive, simple, and relatively inexpensive fix.
If it ever fails me, I'll let y'all know. But if and when it ever
does, I'll bet I'll have long since gotten my $466 worth out of it.
