According to the new Family Movie Act of 2005, it's now """"legal"""" to make unfixed subtractive works!

U.S. copyright law makes it illegal to sell edited versions of Hollywood films. But the Family Movie Act says if you use software to "mak[e] imperceptible changes to...limited portions of audio or video content of a motion picture...from an authorized copy of the motion picture," you're OK. Just don't create a "fixed copy of the altered version." 


yeah...maybe...
