you to pay for it again. I'm not accusing you of illegally copying music
by the way, but as the UK has no fair use rights enshrined in law, if
those mp3 have been ripped from your CD collection, the published could
label them unlicensed copies.
Yeah good point, I was more highlighting the fact of giving up cd's than the actual
storage medium. My point being we're all used to 'having' stuff its a leap of
faith to change that.
I take your point though. For most people there wouldn't be
anything
that the government would be interested in. Once the data is out of your
hands though you really have no control about who else has access to it.
Simon Phipps can tell you all about being spied on and misuse of your data/information he
can tell you things you'd never even think of. Strikes me some people put more effort
into avoidance than the data is actually worth.
I wondered if that was you when I say the email address. I was the
ginger bloke.
