gdpr Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 In Belgium, it is legally allowed to take a 'backup' from your CD's. (The law is not explicit if the backups can be used to play back your music, but no one is making a problem of it.) However, you must be able to proof that you own the original - physical - CD's. I keep mine (about 2000) in their jewel cases. Dirk Link to comment
gdpr Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 When you steal a chair and put it in your own home, it is obvious that the rightfull owner cannot sir on his chair anymore. Link to comment
gdpr Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 The main thing is was trying to pass on, is that the chair can only used at one place (anhd even by one person at the same time). A physical CDcan only be used by one player at the same time, however its content can be copied, distributed and used multiple times without any quality loss. That is the main reason, nobody will ever check if you actually bought the chair. I am convinced that nobody will check if an individual consumer has bought the physical CD', which content he is listening to. What they would like to control is if you actually paid one way or another for the music you are listening to. Bystander 1 Link to comment
