 libbluray alone isn't going to do much for you since it needs to be paired
 with libaacs in order to actually be able to handle any commercial discs.
 As far as the legal side of things goes, the situation's still
 sufficiently precarious in the US that the risk isn't worth it. Unless the
 DMCA and various other laws that go hand-in-hand with it get repealed
 (which is extremely unlikely to put it mildly), that's not going to
 change.
