A Hard Drive is Not a Home Recording Device
Posted by Angelo Sotira in Archive on August 21, 2000 at 2:18 PM

According to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and the National Music Publishers Assn. (NMPA) - your computer's hard drive is not a home recording device, so the Audio Home Recording Act (AHRA) does not protect it!

OK let that settle in there for a second before I throw the second part at you.

You ready?

MP3 files that reside on another Napster user's hard drive are also not "digital music recordings."

I don't know how to end this article, I'm just at a loss for ... key strokes.
