Oh right, so you not only make you own boot-leg copies but you also
buy a commercial copy!


No. Kindly cease and desist from lying about me.

If you abuse copyright you are STEALING.


Abuse copyright? How does that differ from infringing copyright, which
is not stealing (because the owner is not deprived of the item copied).

The copyright holder may not have been "deprived of the item copied" but
s/he has certainly has been deprived of the income from the same of said
item that they would have received had the person BOUGHT a copy of the item
instead of STEALING it.

Look cretin, if someone wants a copy, and they make or obtain a
boot-leg copy rather than *buying* a commercial copy they have stolen
a sale and thus income from both the artist and media company. FACT -
QED.

Now troll off, moron, stop trying to defend the indefinable.

snip trolling

You are the bull-****ting trolling moron. Read the Copyright

Act
FULLY,
and stop Cherry picking.

Jerry, you only had one thing to do:

State which part of the copyright act was being violated in

order
to
justify your own assertion that the copyright act was the reason
for you
to call the OP a criminal.snip

I already have. READ the Copyright Act.


All you have ever said is

"I suggest you read and digest what the clause regarding

time-shifting
(with due regard to the section about archiving) in the Copyright

Act"

You have already admitted that the 7 day limit is not specified in

the
law, you said that in the same post, only you Jerry would prove yourself
wrong in the same post.
snip


As I said, read the said Act, especially in respect of Archiving, as
archiving is not allowed [1] then by definition a Time-shifted recording
can only legally be of a limited period.


Which is not defined as seven days. If you remove the DRM that itself is
not a crime, if you kept the recording without DRM for longer than
whatever this undefined period is then of course that is archiving - that
is a crime sure. Removing DRM itself is not a crime - sadly you are unable
to comprehend that.


Now as for the 'reasonable period that a Time-shifted recording can be
kept for, there is no time scale in the Act for the simple reason that
each and every case could be different, let's take two possible
situations, we have two wife's, both record the last episode in a series
of Scrubs (for example) so that their husbands can view it when they
return home from work, husband 'A' works on a North Sea oil rig whilst
'B' works nights in a local Take-a-way, it would be (very) reasonable
for wife 'A' to keep the recording for 3 months, but wife 'B' would be
hard pressed make an case to keep it more than 3 days.


So if wife A removes the DRM to keep a recording for husband A to watch
when he returns from the oil rig, prison, Iraq or wherever then you agree
it is legal.

So therefore removing DRM is not a crime itself. Archiving the DRM
stripped recording is - which was never the argument.

If you were capable of comprehending that you would have managed not to
make such an idiot of yourself.


Now stop trolling.


I have noticed in this thread you call others a troll because they
disagree with you. That is kind of childish - you are incapable of
representing yourself and cannot justify your points or even grasp
concepts, once you understand this (if ever) then you will realise that
people are not trolling they are just correcting the unrefined crap you
are posting.

You also use the 'trolling' lie as an excuse to snip out large parts of
posting you are embarrassed of - like your continual refusal you state
which part of the copyright act you feel is being violated. Remember you
first used the time shifting section, you probably realised it was BS,
moved on to archiving, which was irrelevant so just snipped everything and
responded to the question "Which *part* of the Copyright act" with the
ignoramus response "The Copyright act", of course that only 'works' when
you snip everything including the question.

Obviously the reason was that once you tried to explain how your mind(sic)
was working (like the post I am now replying to) then it lets the cat out
of the bag doesn't it and makes this whole sub-thread pointless had you
attempted to explain your misguided thoughts(sic) in the first place.

i.e

Where is the crime?


Jerry: Archiving

But what if you are not intended to archive, people just want to exercise
their rights under the time shifting section, the later convenient time
is longer than 7 days.


Jerry: Oh I suppose so, begrudgingly you may have a point, I shall
withdraw my claim that the OP was a criminal.

Of course, that would never happen because you would never admit being
wrong about anything would you Jerry, you would rather make yourself out
to be an idiot, I suppose as others have posted, you have no reputation to
salvage other then the reputation of being pig-ignorant, unable to ever
had a second point of view, you stick to your initial thought no matter
how wrong it is.

Jerry, you have to do better than that.

You have had plenty of opportunities to justify your claim the OP is a
criminal. If you ever get charged, you are charged for committing a crime
under a section of an act - not the whole act itself (surely you are
familiar with the mental health act).

You have not stated which section of the act is violated - your assertion
your responsibility to back up.

Any other reply than some form of Justification is deemed an
admission that you cannot.

Hardly. It's a programme broadcast by the BBC. They'll probably just
timeshift it another way if they don't strip the restriction.

It's not stealing: you can't deprive someone of income they don't have.

Rubbish. If someone wants a copy and they make a copy rather than not
viewing the broadcast, they've stolen nothing. The artist and media
conglomerate get their income from the broadcaster either way. It's
up to them to negotiate terms, but iMP is crackpot.

How do you know that, many programmes have a 'repeat life' whilst
many programmes have a life beyond broadcast by being release on DVD
etc. If someone keeps a copy then they are less likely to buy or
watch a later 'release'.

I'm debunking the confusion that you and your F*CT buddies
spread. "Copyright abuse" is another nonsense term from
you. Copyright infringement is illegal, but timeshifting
is not infringement.

Stripping the 7-day limit from iMP to enable timeshifting is
infringement, but timeshifting a higher-quality copy from DVB
by more than 7 days might not be.

I guess I'm trying to establish three things:

1. Copyright law with its DRM add-ons is a dog's breakfast;

2. it's evil bad and wrong for a public service broadcaster to
be restricting timeshifting unnecessarily - it wastes licence
payers' time and money in several ways;

3. whether Jerry will ever admit that.

[...]
If they wanted a copy and didn't record their own they would have
BOUGHT a commercial copy.


I doubt that very much. It seems far more likely they'll timeshift it
another way.

No one has said it isn't, but archiving is and if you keep a
recording (longer than is needed or 'reasonable' to view it), that is
archiving.

infringement, but timeshifting a higher-quality copy from DVB
by more than 7 days might not be.


No it would not be, you have only been given licence to hold the
recording for 7 days, never mind any offences someone might commit
whilst hacking the DRM.


I guess I'm trying to establish three things:


'Guessing' is exactly the correct word to use, that is exactly what
you are doing, rather than reading the said Act(s) relating to all
this!..


1. Copyright law with its DRM add-ons is a dog's breakfast;


Not it's not, but one is not just dealing with what the Copyright Act
says about time-shifting, archiving but the laws that protect
computer programs.


2. it's evil bad and wrong for a public service broadcaster to
be restricting timeshifting unnecessarily - it wastes licence
payers' time and money in several ways;


No it's not, many of the programmes will not have been made by the
BBC, they will have either been bought in from (technically and
financially) separate production companies within the BBC or from
wholly owned outside companies - are you suggesting that such works
should not be protected by copyright law just because they are shown
on PSB?!


3. whether Jerry will ever admit that.


Will you ever read and comprehend, or will you just keep repeating
your ignorant clap-trap, whilst defending and giving support to those
who abuse copyright.

So, Jerry you cannot.

Also, look up troll. A troll is one that posts something inflammatory and
stands back and watches. Not someone that is trying to get a straight
answer out of someone that is terminally wrong.

All you have ever needed to do is to back up your claim - something you
clearly cannot do.

One doesn't need licence to timeshift, so that's largely irrelevant.

Not it's not, but one is not just dealing with what the Copyright Act

Oh, don't start: the DRM parts aren't the computer programs reverse

No, I'm suggesting they should be protected by copyright law and not

are BBC broadcasts schools can't use?

about that very problem.

It is a real problem and one that the BBC should not exacerbate.
