Gotta love copyright law!

You are quite legally entitled to make a copy for personal reference VHS/SKY+/DVD recorder. you are NOT entitled to then produce another copy in another format. This is classed as reproduction, for which you require permission from all copyright holders.



"My Sky+ works in exactly the same way. When I record episodes of Teletubbies using my set-top DVD recorder for my 3-year old, I'm committing no crime."

No you're not, but if you were to record them on a computer and them reproduce them on dvd you would be.
