Officially, per the DMCA, if a company encrypts their product in any way shape, or form, that counts as a written notice of them refusing to allow you to copy the product. Now, this directly conflicts with the DMCA saying that any home user, library, or educational institution can make backup copies, but since when has the law ever broken in the favor of the normal person?
Yep, the DMCA pretty much says if the mfr employs encryption the mfr can set out any use scheme they want and you have to obey it. It's like a EULA that you don't have to sign. It's typical and telling of the US congress that the only time they'll actually pass legislation is to screw people over for the benefit of Big Media.
