When DVD "ripping" was in it's infancy 9+ Gb of free HD space was definitely a premium for your average home computer. Encoding the DVD data to VCD or DivX took all night (8+ hours) on the ~1GHz single core CPU's of the time.
Learn the lessons of history. PC's eventually catch up.
It is only a matter of time that someone releases a HMDI-HDMI convertor that filters out the HDCP so this card coudl work on such content. Or conversly someone hacks this card (driver software?) to allow HDCP recording.
