Hello,

Is it possible to go to Japan for holiday for some time and try to rent and rip hundreds of JAV DVDs?

There are a few issues that I would like to learn about:
  1. Are there JAV DVD rental shops in Japan?
  2. If so, can you rent JAV DVDs as a foreign tourist?
  3. How many DVDs can you rent at once?
  4. Can you rent a lot of videos on one day, do ripping on the same day, then give DVDs back on the next day and rent new ones and so on for like 30 days in a row?
  5. What is the cost of rental of a single DVD? (I would like to rip maybe like 500 videos, I would like the total cost to not exceed ~¥1,000,000)
Btw, breaking DVD CSS encryption is easy. I know the algorithm details and I wrote my own implementation of decryption in x86 assembly, so DVD copy protection is not an issue for me. Also the new copy protection scheme that uses deliberate bad sectors in the beginning of the disc, so that for example Linux "dd" tool fails is also trivially easy to bypass.
