yeah they are putting mp3s from loads of cds onto a dvd and selling it as a backup copy.
im pretty sure the labels who have released these cds would like to know about this as im sure they wouldnt be too happy. only i dont know how to contact them so i figure someone might spot this thread and know who should see it
the auction has ended but heres the link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2514822366&category=1561
item # 2514822366
looks like hes already sold quite a few
i just think its crap this guys is making $ off other peoples work under the guise of "dont buy this unless you own the original already"
lame

Yeah....I'm not %100 sure...it's the same person but it looks like the sam lay-out......but this has been happening for a about a year now.....It's pretty "poor" in my view, the seller obviously has very little respect for the music or himself for that matter!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if ppl have the original then why not just do the backup themselves. and it's still illegal anyways

Something like this happened to a boy in my old high school. He was copying CDs and Playstation games for his own profit until one of his "friends" was short of cash - They reported him to the police and because of a successful prosecution his "friend" had a £150 reward!

What puzzles me is that with mp3s being so easy to get a hold of nowadays, people are still willing to pay for the bastards. That tells me that not only are they tight-asses, they're also lazy-asses as well.
