Empty Threat Or Empty Wallet
« on: June 20, 2006, 01:12:11 am »
Folks I am sure on paper this is 100% legal but in reality is this a new low in scare tactics ?

The record industry is warning people selling their MP3 players that they could be unwittingly breaking the law by leaving their music on the player.
Some listings on the auction websites actually advertise the fact that the player comes with hundreds, or even thousands, of songs.
The industry says this could mean that members of the public are - intentionally or otherwise - entering the world of commercial music piracy.

It is perfectly legal to sell on a CD with which you've become bored and which you just do not want any more,
But doing the same with downloaded music is against the law - even if you've bought it legitimately.


So what this is rubbing into foks who innocently paid for legal download DRM damaged tracks is that you have paid for nothing, and your righs to pass on the nothing you have bought dont exist.

Tell me they are not this pathetic ?

Just completely wrong. "You give us your money, but you cannot own a tangible product, nor any rights whatsoever as a consumer. However, it is a good deal, because we still get your money:)"

Wow a new low...and I didn't think it was possible for the riaa lmao
