microphone (SP-SPSM-1) will be on sale for 20% off the regular discounted price.

Hi all,
Seems a bit of a hot cookie today, this copyright stuff. Perhaps satan delivered a CD
or
two to some peeps for xmas and they are already thinking of all the CDs their friends
must have received and are counting their supply of blank MDs.
And why not? Copyright law sucks. Big time.
MD Trading of copies of original CDs is definitely illegal - no grey areas,
that's piracy.
Most traders on the net (including myself) trade in recordings of concerts
that someone has taped (via various sources) and then offered for swaps
or blanks and postage if the person has nothing to offer.
Hey,
Is anyone familiar with the Casio MD portable player? How well does it
uncompress the songs? How does it compare with the Sony players and Aiwa
players?
Thanks,
~Brad

If wanting it to be so *made* it so, you'd be right.
Distributing copies of copyrighted material without permission is,
indeed, illegal.

No, I'm not talking about laws at all in this case (and, by the way,
the laws that govern this predate both the recording industry and

You obviously feel strongly about this, but are somewhat misinformed
I should add that copying a CD to an MD is legal as long as you aren't
copying it for comercial purposes. I think trading MDs falls under
that. Now if you copy the MD and sell it to make money, that would be a
sick bird, an ill eagle (illegal). But if you trade it for another MD
and you don't
