Why word it that the US is considering "legalising hacking"?? This is purely the industry view and kills any view that you are objective in the matter. It has been determined time and again that I have a right to make backups of material that I have purchased. Whether it is digital or paper. The DMCA artifically removed this right and Congress wishes to fix the problem. I applaud them for working to make sure that I a not a criminal because I want to make a backup copy or wish to view my media on a hardware platform of my choice. The DMCA is akin to saying that I may only read a paper printed the paper of a publisher industry groups choice because they wrap it in a plastic bag and a rubber band.
