CANADA APPROVES P-TO-P MUSIC DOWNLOADS
Canadians can legally download peer-to-peer music files,although uploading
them is still illegal, the Canadian Copyright Board ruled last month. So
long as music is being recorded purely for personal use, and not being
sold, rented or otherwise disseminated to other people, its use is legal,
the board said. It does not matter whether the source of the recording is a
pre-owned track, a borrowed CD or a track downloaded from Internet, the
board said. The combination of the latter two rules mean that recording a
CD for a friend is illegal, but handing the CD to the same friend and
letting them make a copy for their own use is legal.
