"ยง 1008. Prohibition on certain infringement actions
"No action may be brought under this title alleging infringement ...based on the noncommercial use by a consumer of such a device or medium for making digital musical recordings or analog musical recordings. " ... The HRA places no limits on the numbers of such tapings. All that matters is that he is not selling or renting them out.
The N.E.T. Act redefines commercial gain to include if you exchange copies of recordings with people. Presumably if you and I were to trade CD's we might be engaged in commercial gain. If we trade copies we definitely appear to be financially gaining under the act's new definition. -- Robert Costner Phone: (770) 512-8746 Electronic Frontiers Georgia mailto:pooh@efga.org http://www.efga.org/ run PGP 5.0 for my public key
