The Scene Portal - The RIP Scene 

A pirate group's goal is to release a commercially available game, with all copy protection removed or bypassed, in a format that reflects the original games purpose, and is generally considered "playable". It is in the hands of suppliers and/or crackers to determine what and how much of a game to remove or "rip" without compromising the quality and playability of the game.
From 'Beowulf's Thoughts on the CD-RIP'ing Scene' by Beowulf
