MPAA suing RealNetworks over RealDVD

In a very RIAA-like move, the MPAA has sued RealNetworks for a program that they claim allows its users to steal DVDs. The program is called RealDVD, which allows you to copy your DVD onto your computer or external hard drive for playback later. However, Real says that RealDVD has encryption that doesn’t allow users to copy or distribute the DVD files. Although, theoretically it is possible to get a DVD from Blockbuster, Netflix, or even a friend, copy it, and give it back.
