DVD Back-up for Travel
« on: Jun 15, 2009 at 07:18 PM »
Out of curiousity, I would like to ask the subject matter experts of the board if it is prohibited to save back-up copies of my DVDs in an external hard drive when crossing international borders (i.e. US soil).  I wouldn't want to bring the actual discs with me, only to bring them back upon flying home.  Do they check these at the airport upon entry?  ???  Thanks in advance for your inputs.  :)

Nope, you can do that, most especially on US soil, remember they have the privacy act....well of course as long as you don't play it in public. ;) ;D
