5. My, where do I start?
"You deserve to own what you produce" until you sell it. Then it's no longer yours.

"If I write and book and you go to the bookstore, buy one copy and start reproducing it and selling it elsewhere, that is theft." This is copyright violation. It is not theft. This is like calling theft murder.

The operative words above being "and selling it elsewhere". These people want to prevent me from making a compilation CD out of my own CDs, for my own use. They also want to prevent me from taping TV shows for later viewing. Is that right?
