The Music Ethics Thread

[kwjake]

What are your music ethics?

And the burning part, were not talking about backup copies, were talking like burning a friend's CD.

 

[scorpmatt]

yes to both

 

[ruffilb]

Wrong forum?

But w/e

 

[upsciLLion]

I buy CDs used as much as I can. I legally own the music and the RIAA gets dick.

Well, your poll topics are ambiguous. Do you legally own a copy of the CD that you're burning? You're allowed one legal backup copy before violating copyright laws.

When "torrenting" CDs as you put it, are the CDs that you're torrenting currently under copywright to someone other than yourself or the party that you're getting it from?

No, you don't legally own a copy, it's your friends CD.

The music is still under copywright

I wonder what the chances are of getting in trouble over torrenting music?

go tell the RIAA that you do that, and then tell them all of your information and to suck your dick

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Wrong, I don't do it for both.

I feel better about my piracy since I attend quite a few concerts.

 

[MikeyIs4Dcats]

you have a musical fetish

 

[ruffilb]

I send .2$ to the artist for every song I download.


Ok, I don't, but I should.

 

[xSauronx]

i dont reburn cds

but i listen to almost exclusively live music, and all of that which i get is free and legal.

 

[Schadenfroh]

I am a RIAA whore.

[insert FBI is watching comment]

 

[SilentRavens]

Generally, I won't torrent my music, but if a friend likes something I have I will usually burn them a copy.

 

[EyeMWing]

I just bought a CD (used, heh) and I feel like crap for paying for music

 

[eplebnista]

It's wrong, I don't do it.²

 

[shimsham]
