When I first discovered this program while looking for dvd decryptor back in the early 2000's, I could not help but to notice the glaring similarities in the way that the GUI was setup.
I gathered that dvd decryptor was having legal issues by the various websites I came across, and when I found this program, I wondered if this became the successor, all the decrypting capabilities removed of course.
And I also wonder if that's why this program has has always remained freeware, because it's a really nice tool.
In case I've said anything taboo, I just want to clarify that I'm NOT advocating anything illegal, and I've only ever made legitimate backups of data that I paid for or was given the right to use, such as freeware and GNU things that are offered freely by the developers.
