Alrighty, I saw the MP3 support post, didn't think i could get an answer out of you unless i put your name here. I have a question about the MP3 Copyright stuff?
What if the MP3 comes straight off my CD, I just Transfer it into a MP3 *which is possible, i do it quite often*is it still Copyright?

If you don't make the song, or have written permission from the creator, then it is illegal.

When you buy a Cd, you are buying the right to listen to it, you don't own it. I hate the music companies

Rule: You can only use MP3s that you have composed otehr wise CD's tat you have bought in stores are from record labels and cobyrighted and you CAN NOT USE THEM,
any MP3 thats not yours you can not use because it is usually copyrigt, any music off o other programs liek kazaa or morpheus you can not use either.

In one word, Yes.
