| | | 10GB of MP3 on a FAT32 disk, Win2k, an Intel PII 266 @ 333 (4x 83MHz) is NOT a good combination, I just found out. The filesystem crashed and I now have about 4000 FILExxxx.CHK files instead of a nice directory-tree with sorted and labeled MP3's... (...) (24 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

| | | | 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)

| | | | | (...) 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 (...)

| | | | (...) 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)

But I don't claim to understand the legal intricacies to really be able to explain this intelligently. However, since MP3.com was sued for this exact same (...)

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).

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).
