I guess if huge hard drives were cheap enough and making perfect copies was easy enough and legal then I suppose I would be all for it.

This is how I feel. Backing up every kid DVD we have is just not as convenient/economical as I'd like it to be, so I simply don't do it for everything. I've got a nice library of kids stuff to watch on my server at home, but physical DVDs still reign supreme without question in my house.
But yeah, I think you can copy anything you own as long as you don't sell it or give a copy to anyone else. I haven't done the research, but that seems to be the gist I recall.
