Legality of Distribution
« on: October 22, 2006, 12:11:48 PM »
Hi all,
  I was tinkering with the idea of making DVD copies of all the PBA telecasts since I have a DVD burner hooked up to my TV. I would only charge like 5 or 6 bucks a week shipped. But my question is....if that 5 or 6 bucks goes towards my supplies and shipping, is that considered illegal?? I mean if I had a buddy down the street that wanted one and I gave him a copy it wouldn't be illegal right? Also, would anyone be interested in something like this? I mean it still has commercials but its on a DVD and you can skip those real quick.

Thanks,
BMM

Fair enough, I just wanted everyone's take on it. So if RIAA has a NARC on the board BMM is not disrtibuting any DVD's on the internet, just keeping them for my own safe keeping and whenever DP3 misses a show

Sorry about all the posts guys, it said that there was some type of error when I submitted it. I won't do it. I just thought that it would be cool for everyone who wanted one to get one, its great for keeping them. But I don't get it, why copyright a live public telecast when your (Copyrighter) aren't gonna make any more money off of it??  I mean I would think that you would welcome the extra interest. I Guess there is always the point of ratings. I dunno...just ranting
