All you people are proving is that you can't read for content.
I never said anything about whether ripping DVDs is legal or not.
I only said that Walmart's service is not evidence of ripping being
illegal, or of anything but their desire to make a profit offering a
service.
One might make a case that it's evidence that DVD ripping is difficult
and complicated enough that people who shop at Walmart will pay to have
somebody else do it. The legality of it is not even an issue in this
context. There's nothing implicit or explicit in the offer that says
"it's illegal for you to do it yourself, so let us do it for you." The
offer is simply "Let us do it for you."
