But, the lobbyists for the major music and movie studios have resisted modernizing these regulations. They were both conceived to stop plagiarism and blatant copyright abuse. In broad terms, they talk about whether making a copy of something is ‘fair’ or whether it infringes on the copyright owner – normally the musician or studio. In the United States and UK, there are two similar concepts called Fair Use (US) and Fair Dealing (UK). Most reasonable, intelligent people would think that once you buy a movie or CD then you have the right to watch it or listen to it however you want. Let’s get the legal questions out of the way first though. That’s all you’ll need to get started, other than the movies you want to rip to digital files. You’ll need either a PC or a Mac to run MakeMKV, but I’m a PC guy at heart.Īnd that’s it. The other thing to note is that everything in this tutorial is written from a PC perspective. That means it gives me 3 terabytes total space, but that space is being constantly backed up so that I never have to worry about losing my stuff because the drives go bad. Personally, I’ve got the consumer version of the Western Digital My Cloud which gives me 6 terabytes of space which I’ve got mirrored. I recommend some sort of Network Attached Storage (NAS) device. That’s a lot of space for one movie, so obviously, if you’re transferring your entire collection, you’re going to need a good sized hard drive or two. Blu-ray discs increase that by a factor of 10 to almost 50GB of data. A single DVD can hold up to 4.7GB of data. Conclusion What you’ll need to get startedĪ couple things up front: DVD’s and Blu-rays take up a lot of storage space.
