I still see it as a license for the MEDIA, the CD or Tape that you receive. When you decide that you want to cover your own butt and copy it to the hard drive of your choice then you violate the license. IANAL but this is pretty straight forward. People can claim Fair Use but till that is proven in the courts you are wrong. BTW I hate the RIAA. They just adjust the rules much like M$ but we don't consider it wrong because we just cheat. I also use etree.org for my music. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer Mimeo.com Memphis TN 901.246-0159 --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
