I ask a buddy of mine who's studying law and the transfer of archival copies between one licensee to another licensee provided the original licensee made a legal copy is perfectly legal. The physical dvd means little. Its the license that you bought. There's also something in the copyright act which limits copyright owners first sale something blah blah which denies them the sole right to distribution.

oh yeah forgot to mention that regardless of whether the original copyright owner mentions in the license agreement that you cannot make a backup copy, you can make a backup copy. Basically the copyright act voids that point.
