Dvd-rw

258~ I always get these discs confused. Music disc, DVD disc, Computer disc. CD-R, CD-RW, etc. I don't even understand about the sides. HD or DD. :roll:

What's "CD burning" all about? Isn't it like writing data onto cd?? What's the difference?

CD-R, you only can write once, if erase, it cannot be use again in part area...

CD-RW, you allow to write as much as you can...

Music disc is same data as computer disc is know general as "CD"

DVD is sample idea as CD, but instead, it has huge gig.

HD is know as hard drive that has largest gig than DVD, yet, you able to rewrite. It's like HD is hardcopy and CD is softcopy.

"burn CD" is to write on CD, mini-CD, or DVD.

If it was dvd-r...that would be awful wasting the disc?

Dvd-rw..oh it's not a bad deal even though more stuff could be added later.

I originally downloaded two files that were 500 mb each. Later, I found a smaller version. When I played both, they were exactly the same. Even the quality and resolution was the same as well. Only thing different was: original was mpeg, other was avi.

Well, you wouldn't like it if people were stealing from you.

Wouldn't you?

I wouldn't care if they copied the game. In fact, everything should be like in Star Trek... FREE! In the Star Trek universe, you are not labeled by how much money you have or make, but who you are and what you do.

I don't think you quite understood what I meant. I was saying that you WOULD not like it if people were stealing your copyrighted properties.

How would you like it if somebody copied a book you wrote and sold it as if it was their own book?

Same with the paintings, music, movies, and many more.

Even if you don't care if they do that to you, the MAJORITY of artists does care. You have to understand that, because it is stealing!

Artists use these properties as their INCOME.

Is that so hard for you to understand?

Anybody who download music and don't pay do not appericate arts and they take it for granted.

They are thieves, period! Even if that person is a honour student at a high school.

Now, you said...

They may not have money but they do have credits. If you actually think it's a good idea for everything to be free. You'll be surprised to see how stupid it was of you to say that. If everything was free, then... nobody would be working. That means there'll be no products to get since nobody would be working because everything is free!

I don't think people would work for free.

I think that's why they have credits, so people can collect them by working and buy something with the earned credits.

you are not labeled by how much money you have or make, but who you are and what you do.

"Who you are and what you do"

I would say this to a person who download copyrighted properties without paying for them...

"You are a thief and you steal other people's copyrighted properties." That's a label people can get slammed with. Not exactly a good label to be proud of.

People should treat other people with respect by PAYING for their copyrighted properties rather than stealing them.
 
Jeez...let's not start an arguement in here about what's good and bad about copying a copyright work.

Just use the common senses that you all got in your head. :(

Just leave the arguement between the courts and RIAA. :p
 
Banjo,

Of course, I would be upset if someone profited from my own work. What I'm referring to is making copies and not making profits from it. If someone took my work and sold it as his own, that's copyright that I wouldn't like. If someone simply copied my work for his own pleasure, I don't care. As long as he's not profitting from it.
 
Interesting..I just found out from a friend...who creates his own music.

He said he used to sell his own music through yahoo and ebay. Now because of RIAA, yahoo and ebay are forced to refuse to accept musicans to sell their own work unless they go thru one of RIAA's company.

He is involved with a lawsuit against RIAA for monopoly by forcing the other "competitors" (which is him) to go out of business.

I hope he succeed because he's been in it for almost 24 yrs.

I wish your buddy good luck because he'll need it. I know it's not fair about the big companies monopolizing the market.

But the problem is, the piracy isn't exactly an easy one to eliminate. I understand why eBay wouldn't allow musicians to sell them online. I think there need to be a better policy.

Myself, I believe eBay should set up their own music business licensing section on the website where they would have people applying to sell their original music works. They could get licensed to sell their works online as long they are verified.

How about that idea?
 
No....costs too much to license their own music.

My friend sells at only $2 per cd...plus shipping.

Ebay licensing would probably cost some money.
