Hi: First thanks to Christopher, Steve and Larry for your help with my last question. Here's todays question. Say that you had a list of data that needed to be not only in heirarchical order but also each child of a given parent needed to be in a (...) (24 years ago, 20-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Not because they had copies (that's fair use under the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992, United States Code, Title 17, section 1008), but because they *distributed* copies for which they had no license (17 USC s. 1103). Chris FUT: (...) (24 years ago, 20-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

If I make an MP3 of a track from my own CD, it'll be exactly completely the same as one I download from the internet (assuming the same software and options used to create it). If the law doesn't recognize (...) (24 years ago, 19-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Why would it be illegal to download an MP3 version of a CD you own, yet be legal to rip your own? I mean, the whole point of digital media is that two copies are exactly identical.... (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) You can always encode the MP3's from your own CD's. You'd need somewhere like 80 CDs to get 10 GB og .mp3-files, though. But that number depends heavily on the bitrate you choose when encoding, as well as the running lenght of your CDs! (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

So instead I rip my own -- now I can stream MP3s to work from home without people stealing my CDs any more. :) Not to mention how much easier it is to create playlists... Chris (...)

How do you get *10 GB's* of MP3's? Doesnt that take *years* to download? Or maybe you're running DSL/Cable/ISDN/whatever? --Tobias, who only has about 300 MB of MP3's... Then again, the iBook harddrive isn't big... (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
