Karaoke Forums

This is one way that the Copyright Act has not really caught up with technology. An MP3 is stored on some form of media. If you want to sell that MP3, you can either sell the entire medium, or you can make a copy onto a different medium and destroy the original. Those two concepts are functionally equivalent in all the ways that have been traditionally important to copyright law, but a strict reading of the Act would probably force those to be treated very differently. I don't have a good answer for how to deal with the difference.

A loss for a big corporation and a win for the people is ALWAYS a good thing!! I don't like Corporate America. They are too busy figuring out ways to stick it to the people. From banks, to record companies, to KARAOKE companies, to oil companies, and everyone in between, they are all screwing us at every turn. It's sad what this country has become. The "every man" means nothing anymore.

It is also pretty sad when individuals think they are owed something for which they have put no effort into obtaining.

I also wonder where we'd be without corporate America? *Don't drag me into politics over that statement* Jus' sayin'

Good and bad on both sides.

Who makes up Corporate America? Wait, I think I know this one - PEOPLE.

As for doing what you want with music you bought, I will cite a few songs that have been revoked by the artists for their use and against whom (a small sample of recent ones).

Rush and Peter Gabriel against Rush Limbaugh
Survivor against Newt Gingrich
Tom Petty against Michele Bachmann

Not to mention the number of music and videos revoked from You Tube, etc.

We would be a small business based economy like we used to be, instead of a greed ridden , screw everyone around you society. When I say Corporate America I am not talking about Mom&Pop America. I am talking about the big greedy corporations, like music companies, oil companies, banks, and insurance companies.
