exercise videos

[MADE IT 2 MY GOAL..OH YEAH 0]

I am wanting to start exercising to "Sweating to the oldies" with Richard Simmons. I know I can go online and buy the DVDs but to tell you the truth we are really tight with cash right now. I am not able to work and my husband is out of sick leave and has been for a couple months now (his back). I was wondering, does anyone have a copy they may be able to burn onto the computer and send to me? I have tried d/l the video but I can't seem to find it on any downloading site. No, downloading videos is not against the law unless you burn and sell them. I just want to use them in my home.

you know maybe I am outta place to say this but that would be copyright infringement to say the least.No different than stealing music.You are misinformed to think you have to sell it for it to be a crime.

Yes downloading videos is against the law even if you don't burn and sell them. You are obtaining a copy for your use without paying for it. Both the person offering it for download and the person downloading it are breaking the law.

I don't know what the big deal is. People sell old videos and cd's at yardsales???? Onmyway: Do you have a vcr? I think I have VHS tapes. Let me know.

I wasn't talking about selling a recording you aren't using anymore, I'm talking about copying it or downloading it. One copy paid for, multiple copies in use, that is against the law. I was just pointing out that the original poster had been given some wrong information when she was told it wasn't illegal.
