Your welcome,
I am not sure what the copyright laws are like in the UK but here, what
they told you is not so, every one has a basic right to make a backup or safty
copy of almost anything, copying for preserving that which you have perchased,
which is not for distributon or the passing to others is no violation. Keeping
the originals, only means that you have lost controle of them, and have no way
of knowing just what they did with them. For all you know they are making and
selling copies all over the place. Now I am not saying they are doing this,
just that you have no way of knowing.
It not unlike making your own copies at home of a film off the air, This
is not a copyright violation until you start selling more copies, charging
others to see it etc. Of course as I mentioned it could be very different their
in the UK.
In any case the offer stands if you have original NTSC versions, it no
trouble, and your choice. Sorry I could not help more…….
