Actually the answer is yes you were . What the industry did to get back part of this happened back in the late seventies. they began adding a royalty charge to any recording product. Whether it was blank cassettes, vhs and all recorders. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary Wood" <k8...@att.net>

Apple tried to do the exact same thing with their iTunes. They tried
limitting exactly what type of player you could put their music etc on in
the same way BARD is. The reasons that didn't work are the exact same
reasons BARD shouldn't be doing that either. If you get your hands on
something, whether you have legal access to do so or not, you're going to
want to do whatever you want with that something. Either put it on a CD, or
copy it to something smaller than your Victor Reader, or any number of
things. And if someone wants to burn that book to a CD, or do something else with it that BARD has decided they're not allowed to, even though they have legal access to it, people are just going to find less legal means to do so. Rather than prop up and defend an out of date business model, people should be pushing companies like BARD to get caught up with the rest of the world and actually give people a choice as to what to do with their acquisitions.

But with Bard, you're not permitted to share and you have to qualify for
their service by being blind and having a player that they authroize. There
is a specific exception in the copyright law for Bard and Bookshare type
services.

I'm with you man, if it is steeling then why is it all rite to use
bard with the book players, because you are downloading the books.
Then you are not giving them back. Not a problem as far as I am
concerned.

Ok, so you say, "it's still stealing."
Then you tell me, why are there still some websites that lets you
download music and audio books without having to pay anything for it?
Yes these sites still exist, and people are downloading music and
audio books without having to pay a dime for it.
Explain that one to me, if you can!
 John.

It's still stealing whether or not your boss gives you permission to
copy it.
