guess what they are doing now? they are suing a guy for taking cds that he BOUGHT and putting them on his computer he DID NOT share them! can you believe that! they say it is making copy's of it.
my opinion is that your not making copies of it and just putting files on your computer not making 2 of the cds and that the riaa have gone mad whats your opinion?

I knew there had to be more to it. Nobody would know if he were transferring the CDs in his home. He was illegally downloading them.

Update: We got some more info on the case -- it looks like Jeffrey's actually being sued for illegal downloading, not ripping, but this whole "ripping is illegal" tactic is still pretty distasteful. Check out this post for the full story.

That's rather vivid Cewy.

Never mind programming, maybe you should be a novelist.
