How to Copy Encrypted or Copy-Protected DVD

Digital Versatile Disc or Digital Video Disc (DVD) is quite commonly used nowadays due to its huge storage advantage. However, most commercially produced DVDs are always protected with the Content Scramble System (CSS), a digital rights management scheme that is widely used. Manufacturers or producers use CSS keys set which is a collective term for authentication key, player key, title key, disc key, second disk key set, and/or encrypted key to protect the disc’s content from being duplicated by unauthorized parties. What can you do if you want to copy or make duplications of a protected DVD? Technically, you can seek help from some freeware and shareware available that can help to solve your problem to copy a protected DVD.
