They are encrypted in a vague attempt to prevent people playing them on whichever players they want. It's not to prevent piracy - a pirate can just make a bit-for-bit copy (including encryption), and it's exactly the same. It's purely to stop people playing DVDs on players that haven't been "authorised". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeCSS
I like the idea to put the backup on /boot. I'll be adding /etc/fstab and the key files I use for other partitions. Obviously, I'll encrypt the file for safety.
