Hi all, Apologies if this is off topic but I think there are many list members who have some knowledge of the issue. As I understand it, it is ok to make a copy of a digital music file for personal use. For instance, I could rip a copy of a song from cd I own and play it on my computer using iTunes. Am I understanding correctly that there is not a problem here?
iPhoto makes it very easy to create a Quicktime slideshow and audio track from iTunes. As I understand, this is still ok as it is for personal use. I then decide to put this Quicktime slideshow on the web for friends to view. I would do this with no intent of profiting from the song but merely as an enhancement to a slideshow. It seems that since I am now putting this on a public medium, that I may be violating copyright laws. Especially since I think it would be possible to extract the audio track from a Quicktime slideshow. So in doing so, am I violating copyright laws? Apologies of this is too far off topic. If so, listmoms please let me know. Jim -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
