WWOOOO...My I-WANNA-IPOD daughter isn't happy! To quote: " You mean if I buy a CD I have to turn around and pay for it off if Itunes to get it on an IPOD?"
Maybe she won't want one anymore :D

From what I gathered, you can download (copy?) the music 3 times maximum, so it doesn't appear to affect the average iPod user, since you need only copy it once. Those who make multiple copies of CD's would be affected.

Someone correct me if I misread/misunderstood, though.

Your talking about the songs you download off of itunes. These 'copy protected' cds can not be played in computers at all.
 
Oh, that's not so good. :( I got my boyfriend an iPod for Christmas and he uses it all the time. He takes it to work, listens in the car (i got him the transmitter for the car radio.) We NEVER share music with other people, in fact we're very against any form of software/music piracy. This stinks. It was our way of avoiding having to carry CD's around with us all over the place. :mad:

OUCH... I guess now you will have to download the tunes you want.

Seems too much control is never a good thing!
 
The RIAA should be targeting illegal file swappers more aggresivouly without restricting the honest publics ability to transfer their music to another medium freely. I think the RIAA's intention was good but the implementation of the idea was poor.
 
That REALLY bothers me actually. As do CDs that don't rip and encode to MP3 properly as a form of "copy protection.

Thing is, I don't go and give my music out to everyone I know or over the internet or anything. What I do is I buy a disc, I throw it in my computer, rip it to MP3 at the highest quality setting, and I listen to it there or burn the MP3 files to a CD so I can listen to them on my car MP3 player. I keep the original disc in its case in a safe place so it doesn't get damaged or lost.

With all this new copy protection crap, I can't do that. It's basically just keeping me from listing to the music that I bought in the way that I want to.
