Question: What is the law against 'burning' a music artists CD?
Answer: It is against U.S. and international copyright laws to copy an original work created by someone else without permission. The copyright laws apply to music CD's. The same copyright laws also make it illegal to copy movies -- as you know, if you have ever read those warnings that appear at the beginning (and end) of a rented videotape or DVD. Likewise, if you check the cover of any music CD that you purchase, you will see that it contains a notice under U.S. and international copyright laws warning against making copies without permission.

Music Producers and and Singers DO make money of the albums they sell. If everyone didnt buy there CD and just burned them, then what would they have to make money with?!
