While some of the people have worked out a deal, others have not and will not. They want no deals (the MPAA). Screw them, we should be allowed to make backups of movies and the like.

In other words, the RIAA and its allies at the Business Software Alliance (BSA) and the Computer Systems Policy Project (CSPP) are happy enough with the legal status quo, or at least don't wish to risk a clash on Capitol Hill with an uncertain outcome. The movie industry, CEA and consumer groups, on the other hand, are willing to risk that confrontation.
