RealNetworks’ RealDVD is a software that every technology aficionado acknowledges owing to its capability of ripping DVD movies into a computer just as you can rip those CDs. The Software has been marred with a controversy that has now seen a United States District Court passing an injunction order-meaning that the sales of the software have been put on an immediate hold, ‘until’ a decision is made.

Legal restrictions should favor the consumers, but in this case the injunction order passed by Judge Marilyn Patel does exactly the opposite.
