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.

Show me a law that allows unlimited file sharing of copyrighted material. Or allows you to break file protection so you can do that.

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.

This should cover the 1st point. As for breaking file protection - it's not illegal in Canada.....YET!!!

# Section 80(1) (Copying for Private Use) of the Copyright Act provides:"the act of reproducing all or any substantial part of a musical work … onto an audio recording medium for the private use of the person who makes the copy does not constitute an infringement in the musical work" and, as such, "the downloading of a song for personal use does not amount to infringement".
# Merely placing personal copies of songs into shared directories which are accessible by others via a P2P services does not constitute either: (i) the distribution or unauthorized copies or (ii) authorization of the reproduction; of sound recordings which is prohibited under the Copyright Act.

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.

You of all people should know that an EULA (or whatever the content publisher decides to call it, "EULA" is specific to Microsoft), regardless of what it contains, does not trump law. End of story.

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.

Its one thing passing these regulations its another thing trying to enforce. I doubt the Courts will want to be tied up with a 100,000 defendents downloading "Desperate Housewives".

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..
