How can it not infringe copyright if it facilitates copying of 'protected' DVDs and CDs?
It's like a lot of things you can buy. They can be legally purchased and owned, but it's how you use them that can be against the law.

You can buy DVD copying software from PC world, Amazon etc. If these were illegal, I'm sure they would have been prosecuted years ago.

How about Windows XX. You can use a computer to "cut and paste" part of a copyrighted document, so does that mean that Bill Gates is selling an illegal product?
