said by digitalfutur :No, you have a right to use the way the copyright holder says you do. No you don't. You have the right to use it according to the laws. It's not because a copyright holder says something that it's the law.
For example, even if it's written "Not For Resale" on a product, you're still allowed to resale it. -- Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you |

1 edit | You misjudge human nature. If there's no copyright protection or penalties for illegal copying, copyrighted material will be illegally copied and distributed.
You can put something from an iPod onto a CD because the DRM for iPod downlaods allows for limited copying to CDs. -- All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing - Edmund Burke. "Walk the Talk". |

| Under the terms of purchase you only own the medium, not the content. Ownership of the content remains with the copyright holder. The EULA governs how you can use that content, including approved devices. Read up on what copyright means.
If you don't like the copyright terms, don't buy the content. -- All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing - Edmund Burke. "Walk the Talk". |

| Still there after deletion. Eventually it will be overwritten too much to be recovered.
What I could see happening is these approved devices will have a format time bomb in the firmware. You can put your songs on the player, but after a designated time or some sort of counter, the device will format itself. |

1 edit | reply to capdjq True but if it were to pass you are guilty till YOU prove yourself innocent..Say for example at airport(goverment says cant happen but its in the bill)your listening to song/watching a movie,it just so happens the guy at the gate is havin a bad day and decides you need to have one too.Prove those files belong to you.
Better if it never makes it here.Probably Congressmen in the states goin holly shit batman,we wanted to retract some things from our's and we got ourselves another whole stupid bunch of idiots dumber than we are livin right next door.
Edit.Changed the word wrong to innocent.Gettin my self all confused. |

Hmm.. in that case, request the seller to write an 'official' note that you purchased the DVD from him. And both your thumb prints should be on the note, not your signatures. That way the document is secure! hahahahahahah
Just kidding..
For some reason, this law is bugging me.. |
