But can't you use some form (I'm stabbing in the dark here-I don't know myself) of disc utility to create a blank ISO, "mount" it in the CD drive so that iTunes **thinks** a CD-R is inserted, and then "burn" it to the ISO instead of a physical disc? I know there are those virtual drive apps for gaming, there should be something comparable for this. I know you can create blank images with Apple's Disk Copy utility, so there should be a way to create blank CD images with some 3rd-party app as well...
Wouldn't the CD be the property of the taxpayers whose money goes to the library lending it out? I'm not sure exactly how that works, but I work in a public library and could find out if anyone's interested in knowing. It seems to me, though, that library materials are the legal property of the taxpaying public. Just my $0.02 worth...
They're not actually fireballs. They're the emergency escape shuttles for the RIAA members. They know that Peer-to-Peer sharing is here to stay, and that customers are getting pissed, so they're hightailing it off the planet and going home to Alpha Copyrightiapissathelistenersoffa 5.
It's true. This country's status as a "democracy" went out the window a long time ago. I once read on the forums here someone talking about companies "buying some laws" from the government to make sure they get their way. He was right, all you need is money and you go straight to the top. I personally am glad someone donated an anonymous million dollars to help fight the DMCA (Domineering Mandated Conformity Act). It's what we need, as despite the boycotting efforts, the average joe consumer is still going to buy his Britney Spears CDs. I'm glad we have companies like Apple and senators like those now pushing bills in support of fair use rights on our side. Without them..."1984," anyone?
