EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hello Spectrasonics!

Ok then I know!!

I was sure I could buy a Sample CD and sell it if I wanted I didn\ufffdt know I 
had to die with the Sample Cd in my grave!

So what happens if let\ufffds say I bought a CD and want to sell it I can\ufffdt do 
this either??

Or if the worst thing happens for example It gets stolen or I die and 
someone keeps the Sample CD will someone sue my mum and dad????

It seems like you third part developers have big problems then because I\ufffdve 
seen people all over the world trading CD\ufffds and what about all the Mp 3\ufffds 
with samples from Sample Cd\ufffds wich are trade with all the different look a 
like Napster programs aren\ufffdt all those people about 100 million people 
trading sounds and samples illegally??

Sometimes it gets very difficult to know If it\ufffds legal or not at least 
people in the west with internet are not always following the rules and if 
those 100 millions are doing soemthing illegal why aren\ufffdt there people suing 
them are they to many to handle???

Well Spectrasonics please send me a link with laws because it seems a hell 
of a lot easier to get hold of Cd\ufffds than knowing the law!


Merry Xmas,

Alvaro.
