Hi, It's certainly not clear cut. And it's for that reason why it's best for this list to stay clear of those choppy, uncertain waters. DRM is a big pain in the bum as far as most of it's users can testify too. Let alone those who have access needs. So I do personally sympathize, but thanks for your understanding about not discussing methods here. Regards, Barry List Admin. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Karl Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2011 2:30 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Warning: Piracy issues Hi, Whilst I apologise for breaking any forum rules, and will not do so again, I think it is worth clarifying that the removing of DRM as opposed to simply distributing copied files is not a clear cut case of being illegal. I am currently involved in a case similar to this and it is in no way a clear cut issue.

Methods and processes like this is illegal. This could move the spotlight not only on to the individual, but the community as a whole. I and others will be watching and any further discussion of how to crack will mean a lifetime ban for the person/persons. This is a serious matter, please don't take it litely.
