It's a rip-off in the sense that it's not sanctioned by WBHV. Warner
Brothers Home Video owns the rights to create and sell the DVDs
(whenever they get around doing it). They haven't. So someone took it
upon themselves to create this set and they are trying to make money
off of that. If you've even been to any kind of convention, such as a
Science Fiction convention, you will find people selling DVDs that they
made off the TV. The person making the money is the person who copied
the show using whatever means they have, either a DVR such as TiVo or a
DVD Recorder (it use to be just video tape). With TiVo you are able to
record a program MINUS the commercials. Unless that person had an HD TV
as well the quality is going to be no more than what you get on your
regular TV set. They are violating the Federal copyright laws. They
have created DVDs to sell without the direct involvment of WB. I have
studied copyright law with regards to publishing. And you do not sell
another person's work with strict permission. If you notice, they have
make certain that no image of David Carradine, Chris Potter, the Kung
Fu: The Legend Continues Logo, or even the WB Logo is not on the
package. They figure of they don't have that on there, they are not
violating copyright. But any image even in FILM is copyrighted. They
are trying to get around the copyright laws, but I still say it's a
rip-off just the same.
