Copying DVD's

I just got a DVD+RW burner.  I can now make copies of DVD’s.  Since I have the Blockbuster Movie Freedom Pass, I have access to all of Blockbuster’s DVD’s.  I do not know if the Movie Freedom Pass is available everywhere, but we have had it in Salt Lake since the first of the year.  Anyway, I have not found a reason to copy any DVD’s yet. I asked myself why do I want to buy blanks, do the copying, and find a way to store a bunch of DVD’s?  I could not come up with a good answer.  If I want to see a particular DVD, I just pick it up the next time I am at Blockbuster.  Given the time it would take to download a movie, and the cost and hassle of copying it, I am not sure that the movie manufacturers are going to have the same problem that the music industry is having.
