Germany Says Copying of DVDs, CDs Is Verboten
Billosaur writes "In what can only be seen as the opening salvo in an attempt to control what users can do with content, the German parliament has approved a controversial copyright law which will make it illegal to make copies of CDs and DVDs, even for personal use. The Bundesrat, the upper part of the German parliament, approved the legislation over the objections of consumer protection groups. The law is set to take effect in 2008, and covers CDs, DVDs, recordings from IPTV, and TV recordings." A few folks have noted that this story is incorrect. The original link seems to be down now anyway. Sorry.
Heil Hitler!
Sieg Heil!
Why pay for it at all? Obviously, since you feel the price is too high, you should pirate it. It's your right to be entertained as you see fit, exercise it.
Slashdot - where whining about luck is the new way to make the world you want.
nothing against retards. but thats what that law is. it doesn't mean exactly what the story says. it won't stop anything. besides, we dont need to copy dvd's or cd's... just download it from limewire.

what the fuck do the Danish have to do with anything, ever? No one cares about the Danish.
What if Tetris was invented by Nazis?
And all of this is because of the JEWS, stupid...
The JEWS run Germany again (and all of Europe, and all other white countries), just as they did in 1900. And, in typical 'God's chosen people' fashion, they don't like doing manual labour... after all, they've got their 'cattle' (that's me and you) to do that for them...
So any way they can find to screw more and more money out of the 'non-humans' (that's me and you, according to the Talmud) is just typical of them and their money grabbing ways.
Why aren't there any Jews working on construction sites? Working as postmen? In supermarket checkouts? Plumbers? Electricians? Engineers? No, no JEWS. They're too busy screwing money out of you through their usury systems in the banks, and running the media, telling you to hate your own race...
