re: Taping a show or movie on a blank VHS to give to a friend is not stealing.. You have already paid for it.. Every blank tape has a small tax added to it and that money goes to TV shows, Feature films and a number of other places that off hand I can't remember

So why not add tax to blank CD's, the Cd burner and a portion of every Hard drive sold in the world to pay royalities to the record companys? Just being the Devils Advocate. Only used Napster 1-2 times.
