You seem to have got awfully hot and huffy here, mixture. The 'Licence' applies to the BBC property - it costs me £145.50 a year, and in my opinion I should be able to do what I wish with the downloaded material for personal use, just as I can record it if I wish from the TV.
You will need to explain your logic - when I can burn the download to CD, transport it to a PC plugged into my TV and play it as many times as I wish to as many folk as I wish? All I started out to do was to burn it to DVD for my DVD player to make life easier. No sneaky mass-produced copies flogged on EBay...........
Oh - and if you read post #1 you will see I have not asked HOW to remove DRM. nor 'adjust or circumvent or try to adjust or circumvent' DRM, merely asked if others know how to achieve the aim - a DVD.
Anyone anything useful to add?
