Do you want to be a DVDXCopy star?

Written by Jari Ketola @ 26 Feb 2003 9:55 User comments (10)

Do you want to be a DVDXCopy star? 321 Studios law firm (Keker & Van Nest) is looking for an actual user of the DVDXCopy software to file a motion on behalf of that user to intervene in 321 Studios' landmark fair use lawsuit.
The motion will ensure, that 321 Studios will be able to assert the First Amendment, fair use etc. rights of their customers and fellow DVD owners around the States.

The person chosen will have ZERO legal liability in the process, and will most likely be interviewed by the media -- perhaps world-wide -- as he or she will be acting as a poster "boy" or a "girl" for 321 Studios' fair use and First Amendment assertions.

Please read the announcement from Robert H Moore at the DVDXCopy support forum for more information. Also, if you are interested, please see the thread to send Mr. Moore a private message with your contact information.

Hmmm...Posterboy ? First I have Spent Close to $100.00 on their products ,their 24/7 support is not what it claims , I can no longer use my product , Software refuses my user I.D.,You would think that instead of just closing my account they would at least offer me the ripper free version ?

Ajax_32 The down time at 321 seems to have gotten them way behind. Word has it that licensed users can now get a new license for RF software. It helps if the software was purchased direct from 321. I hear the software has to be documented. That phone wait is a ... While you're waiting on them, what software progs do you have and what seems to be the problem? And I don't think they want me on a poster.

You can get the Xcopy RF version of your software if you e-mail the tech support. They gave me a nuw product number, it took about three days. And I would not like to be the poster boy either.

Dela, They were nice enough to refund my money. That was full price and shipping for the Platinum. I won't say what I said to them though. bbamx68 It's always a good idea to save downloaded programs to disc if you want to keep them.
