Hay im not sure if this is comuputing or music but its a bit of both
but any way i was wondering what is the actual law on owning music that
is coppied, downoloaded, tabed, dubbed you know like everyithing to do with that

but yea i know that distributing or leanding coppied cd s is illegal but waht about the rest??? :sweat:
and is it alright to copy a cd so that the real one wont get damaged ???

and apparently having mp3s is not illegal because of its size and quality orsomthing like that, im pretty sure thats not true???? :shady:

so does any one know the copyrite laws or music laws that covers everythign above???? :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
....................you may laugh at my age but we'll see everytyhing at judgment ................

In Norway, it's legal to download - but not upload. anyway, that law is under debate - and soon it will be illegal to download too...

anyway, it's legal to make mp3 and divx for personal use from cd's and DVD's you own.

Question about burning CDs...

Postby Ichigo_89 » Mon Feb 14, 2005 5:47 am

The law says it's illegal to burn CDs and share them with friends, but is it illegal to burn CDs from family members? (I.E. my close cousin in town, or my sister at home) HELP!

Yeah, it's basically illegal to copy any professionally produced CD (unless you somehow have permission), especially if it's for the purposes of sharing (whether you're going to give it to friends/family or keeping a copy and returning the original to a friend).

People who write below their abilities in order to crank out tons of books and make a buck. Especially Christian authors who do that. Outsiders judge us for it, and make fun of us for it, and it makes Jesus look bad. We of all artists on earth should be the most concerned with doing our best possible work at all times. We of all people should write with all our hearts, as if writing for the Lord and not for men.

Actually, it is legal to copy a CD for YOUR OWN USE, IE to keep the original in its case to keep it from getting damaged.

It's illegal to burn cd's for anyone but yourself.*

That's unfortunatly very true, but that doesn't make it right. Keeping a spare copy of your CDs ripped on your computer in case something happens to them is perfectly legal - as compiling your own burned CD from music you already own. As others have said, where it becomes illegal is when you start giving it to other people.

There is nothing bad about mp3's themselves. It's just a format for data.
