However, content saved to portable drives can be played on up to five laptops licensed to the same user.

The MPPA disagrees and in a statement said, "We are gratified that the Court recognized the harm of RealDVD to the motion picture industry and the strength of our arguments that the product circumvents the copyright protection built into DVDs."
