Revlovejoy, No the A-Bomb is not in the "Anarchist Cookbook" pipe bombs and Gas bombs are, however if you purchase this book expect the government to watch you closely.
As a firefighter, I wanted to protect my crew and in this book there is a lot of knowledge public servants need to know in the performance of their work. There are a lot of crazy people out there. Getting back to the topic? Is it legal to copy your VHS to DVD? In 10 years when you VHS tapes break down, and they do have a life span, you'll have nothing. In the not to far future there will be very little VHS recorder sales, so you won't be able to play the ones you got unless you find a used recorder. Should you protect your investment? This is an ethical decision and you must live with your beliefs.

For example, It's very difficult to find "rotary-dial" phone parts. There's not a whole lot I can do about that, so when my rotary phone breaks, I'm pretty much up a creek unless I can get lucky enough to find the part... otherwise, I'll have to break down and buy a touch-tone. |

You quoted a law, but not the right one. 17 USC 117 applies only to computer programs. As the heading to that section states: "Limitations on Exclusive Rights: Computer Programs." DVDs of audiovisual works aren't included here if their primary purpose is audiovisual.

It's nice to learn everyone's personal opinions and legal jargon being tossed around on this subject but if Dirko had never posted this topic about what he has done none of us would ever know nor would we probably care. He's done it for personal use, not for sale, no profits involved......legal-smegal, blah, blah. Is this topic literally changing everyone's life or is everyone applying for law school now? Let's move on.

Although there has been some "heat" between members here, I've actually found this conversation educational. It's just people talking and giving their opinion about a subject... That's what humans do... They talk. Take care. |

Is it illegal and/or immoral to scan a book you've bought onto your hard drive for your own personal use?
