I am recording just various songs from the net onto cd's.. But.... it seems that stereo's have trouble reading my cd's... they eventually do read them.. but for example, in my car, it might take up to 5 minutes and then 1 minute everytime i skip tracks. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong... I do record at disc at once... and I put a no pause between the songs... could it be the media i'm using? Please email the responses to acollecta@aol.com
 
If the "various songs from the net" are artist's copyrighted works, then I think you're paying your penance for stealing 'em...

If not... well... someone else can field this one!

I am simply using these songs for my personal use. I don't sell them, so I am not ilegally (distributing) these songs so therefore i am breaking no copyright laws.
 
If they're copyrighted and you didn't pay for them, the artist that created them isn't getting paid for his/her creative work - which means you're stealing them.... if you steal them and distribute them on top of it, you're breaking 2 laws!

As a studio owner (not a label) I just happen to think the artists should get their proper and fair compensation for their hard work at creating their art...

Then I guess the millions of people who download and listen to mp3's are all criminals.. its nice to know that your moral values tell you that it is wrong... and yes it probably is... but there is a big difference between morality and actual laws.
 
"...your moral values tell you that it is wrong... and yes it probably is..."

THAT'S nice... (it's wrong, but since everyone else does it, it's OK...) "Well Judge, I know I stole that car, but everyone of my friends stole one too, so I guess I'm off the hook, right???"

*SHEESH*

Jesus Christ here we go again. I love this place. Are you
using adatec easy cd creator, if so I have the same problem if I dont put all MY tunes on it in the same session. If I
leave it open then come back and put another one on I have the same problem, if I put a series of tunes on at one time then I have no problems and no one has been able to tell me
whats up. PS, everyone leave their morals at home.
 
could it have something to do with a new session being created each time you add a song...? Like dragonworks was saying, have u tried burning them all at once? Try that and if it fixes it then i think that'll be the problem..im using adaptec and have no probs at all, then again ill burn clients work all at once , thus if it is the problem mentioned above im staying right away from it..
hey bvaleria , i totally agree that muso's deserve their weeks pay for their work though there are a lot of bands now offering free music on the net, the catch usually being that they'll only put a couple of songs of their album on there , so if u want the rest u have to buy the album. I think billy corgan from the smashing pumkins just released an entire album (correct me if im wrong) available on the net for download... that i like !! but as far as copyright goes i dont agree with it , yet im a bit of a hipocrit cos out of the 300 or so albums i have probly only 250 i actually paid for , the others i burnt...i know its not right , but the albums i burn are things that people want me to have a listen to , not something i would normally go out and buy.... but still i dont think thats any excuse...

ok then ill trot down to confession right away and confess my sins.......*forgive me father for i have sinned, ive downloaded music i shouldnt have* -bolt of lightning strikes spider- spider is no more.......
 
if BoRG wants to engage himself in illegal activities...LET HIM!!!! he's not in trouble until he gets caught...:D
 
Salabim:
He just got caught by saying "...I am recording just various songs from the net onto cd's..." For that he must pay!!! :)

Spider:
You are forgiven my son... as long as you wouldn't "normally buy them"... or at the very least don't enjoy them!!!!!

:) :)

Well, yes. I like making music. I'd like it even more if I got payed. I don't want people to steal my music, and I don't want music to be free. I put down a lot of effort in music, and I do not see any reason why that should go unpaid anymore than somebody who makes a clay sculpture.

Stealing music is wrong. Stop it.
 
I don't believe he ever said that he was illegally downloading songs. If he downloads songs legally from the net, there is nothing wrong with making a CD of these songs and listening to them in his car. I don't think "Napster" was ever mentioned, and I'm pretty sure he didn't say, "Hi, I'm downloading Metallica songs from my friends hard drive...."

Perhaps there is some legal technicality to stick up your ass on this one...perhaps something to do with not making *any* copies whatsoever for *any* reason of the copy that you download onto your system. In this case, if you're oh so afraid of going to hell, I'd download directly onto CD via DirectCD software. :)

Why's everyone so fucking anxious to slap on these tin badges anyway? Is it healthy to assume guilt without any evidence whatsoever?

Sample dialog:

Q: "Hi. I just got a new car this weekend, and the clutch seems to be sticking. Can you help?"

A: "New car eh! Don't you know you shouldn't be stealing cars?! What, just because all of your friends have cars, you should steal one too?"

To quote bruce, "*SHEESH*"

P.S. My position on downloading material that was not intended to be downloaded (e.g. the entire Napster debate) still holds, as I am firmly against it.

Anyway, Borg, you used your car as example...is it your only example? I've had plenty of trouble getting CDRs to play in certain car stereos. Try burning at a slower speed, and closing the disc completely when you're done. Also with some recorders, you can't do ANYTHING on your computer while burning or you'll fuck it all up.
