What do you people suggest as the closest replacement for DVD Decrypter? I have always used it to rip then used DVD Shrink. What would be the best program to replace Decrypter for this method?
Use Slysoft AnyDVD as a substitute.

Sorry to hear this, Lightning UK. DVD Decrypter was the best, ever. It will be sorely missed.

And to MacroVision, YOU SUCK! POS Copy Protection!

Whoops, I was so righteously indignated I forgot to say "thanks to all behind DVD Decrypter" - you made people's lives that bit better.

"we don't need no thought control... :) " ?

Why are people saying "what can i use now" the software can still be used just not downloaded from some sites.

'd wish to express my sympathy to the author of DVD Decrypter, situations like this can be quite devastating. All the best!
Very devastating indeed! DVD Decrypter was the first forum I ever joined and the frist place I learned how to make a backup of my dvd's.

I wish -LIGHTNING UK!- the very best.

This is not such bad news.. First make sure you download and backup the latest version of DVD D. also I recommend doing the same for every other decrypting software you can get your hands on.
As for completely stopping development on dvd d., you don't have to stop. You can continue in secret and releasing the program on the under ground seen. You've got bittorrent, Kazaa (crap now) and all the other file sharing sites. Plus you have those sites that are overseas and don't care about the US laws. Let them host it.
You can make DVD Decrypter look like it was done by someone else who got their hands on the code. You should also release the code to the general public so wouldbe programmers can continue with the project.. They can release their own version of DVD Decrypter.
There are soooo many ways around these situations. They can't stop us from copying our own bought DVD's.
Those HOLLYwood types could just kiss my DVD Back(in up) side.

Another one bites the dust eh, first 321 studios and know this, i signed a partion with 321 studios about this very argument, i mean why can't we make copies of our own dvd's i'll tell you why BECAUSE THE FILM INDUSTRY AND STORES ALIKE WANT OUR KIDS TO DESTROY THEM SO WE CAN GO BACK TO THE STORE AND SPEND ANOTHER £20 OR $15 ON NEW ONES BECAUSE IT SUITS THEM NOT US. LIFE STINKS.

As I've already posted in similar cases it reminfs me the proposal which was under question some ages ago... when vinyl record companies suggested the retire of virgin cassette tapes from the market trying to avoid copying their products. It reminds me "my tooth pains me, so I 'll cut my head!" Once more guns don;t kill, people do, or, fast car don't kill slow drivers do!
Dear gentlemen, I've already paid your interests when buying your product! Are you gonna now to provide me all possible versions and a back up for each of them? Or you wait untill I pay over and over agian for the same product?
Well I believe that the battle maybe is lost, but not the war!
