As far as copying rented movies, my research tells me it is illegal, although as long as you dont sell them or distribute them, no one will ever know. I for one dont see any reason to copy a movie, as I would never re-watch most of the crappy movies that Hollywood produces. If you spend your time watching movies that you have already seen- already know what is going to happen, then I honestly feel sorry for you. With all the stuff I do outside my house, I rarely watch movies to begin with- nevermind watch them over and over like some kind of loser with no life. As far as buying or copying rented movies for the kids to watch repeatedly- maybe you need to do something with your kids instead of sitting them in front of the stupid tube?!?! I will never understand the culture of watching movies over and over- it boggles my mind how lonely and empty people must be these days. Get out of you house and live life instead of watching others live their lives (or their fictional lives)
