Now here is an interesting concept....
<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote<font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>Dave saves $100 in money he didn't have so he wouldn't be bankrupt while John down the road isn't hurting one bit because he has money coming in from all sorts of products rather than just his CD calling tapes. He actually is having more money come in from his calling players because people are buying now buying them because they are able to save money on CD's and spend towards a player. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>
"John has money coming in from all sorts of products" I guess that makes it right since in your view the copying of a CD isn't going to affect him one bit <img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>
And your last quote speaks volumes as to having tried to make a living in the real world of publishing of any sort.

Copyright infringement at any level is a crime and just because you don't see anything being done to the "little guy/user" dosn't make it not doen. 14 years ago ASCAP made the landmark cases of copyright infringment against several different type of companies and individuals to serve as benchmark cases. I am sure if you(or me although I am not going to take the time) dug through the evidance against Napster these cases would be referenced by the prosecution in their complaint.
Copying a CD except if your already own the work is Ilegal.
