If they are planning to "ban" copying of CDs and making of mp3s... doesnt that infringe on my rights as an American? Say I go out and buy a CD from the store and due to space contraints or leisure, I want to rip that CD into mp3s. First of all, it is my CD, I bought it, so I should be able to do whatever I want with it (granted I do not break any laws like illegal trading). Secondly, if they do "ban" mp3s, then the only "legit" mp3s that will be on the market are those from the bands who created the mp3s, or is Microsoft planning to get those guys as well? It doesnt look good. People need to realize that times are changing and instead of trying to impede technology, they should go along with it. As with any music format before... if we didnt go along with technology, we wouldnt be where we are today. Heck, we would all be back on LPs! Imagine playing a LP in your computer... :P
