Copying music

[DemonSlayer]

How about converting several cds into mp3's then burning them into to MP3 CDs, so you can listen to several albums without changing Cds?

whats the problem with that?

when you sell the original CD, you are selling the right to listen to it. if you keep a copy for yourself, you have stolen that copy. the original copy is the only legitimate way to purchase music, and you are free to sell it as it is. it's essentially the same type of stealing as buying it from the store, copying it, then returning it. when you return it to the store, you're relinquishing your right to listen to it. when you sell it to someone else, you're relinquishing your right to listen to it.

Ok, I'll buy that. But doesn't selling used CDs still take away from those who are trying to make a living via music?
