Yes. Totally. Sorry. Sounds like a great idea, but you'd have to pay for them. ( I work in publishing, so I know. It's definitely against the law.)

well, if people give cds of songs as favors, isn't dvds of movies the same type of thing? it seems like it shouldn't be an infringement of copyright law.

Yes, it IS the same thing. You shouldn't be giving out CDs of songs, either.
I'm not saying that people don't do it, and that it's not a pretty small ethical breach in the bigger scheme of things. But she asked if it's against copyright law, and it is. So is making copies of songs. Just because lots of people do it doesn't make it right.

I agree! I actually really like that idea...its different. Usually you hear about cd's but not really dvd's.

Isn't it only infringement if you SELL them? I'm not 100% sure though-it may be if you copy them at all, so don't go by me. It is a cute idea and I doubt anyone would find out or sue.
