Xreveal (collectively the "software") respects copyright, and does not condone or endorse video piracy in any way. The software is designed to allow users to experience their fair use right to the content they purchased, for example, rip, and copy their home made video (if they own the copyright) to blank discs or other media player devices. In most counties, the copyright law will allow the original purchaser or user to make a backup/copy for personal use. But it also might be illegal to make a copy or backup of the purchased movie or disc without permission according to the different laws in different countries.
It should be taken into consideration while using our software in different countries.
