Interesting Changes to Copyright laws are that copying CD’s are limited and are only allowed for private and domestic use.
This means that people cannot burn copies of CD’s to give to their friends, the only time you can copy a CD is if it is for personal use and on a CD player that you own. People cannot share their music online, uploading or giving out music over the internet without authorization of the copyright owner is classed as an offence. Copying other people’s CD’s is not allowed either.
If a person were to make a copy of music for private use, it is not allowed to be played publicly or lent to friends. But the law states that you are allowed to ‘lend’ copies to members of your family or household.
This can possibly be confusing; as the Copyright law changed its law so that you cannot make copies of CD’s or lend music unless it is to family.
