And for the pedantic Zoom And Enhance crowd: my iPod shows it playing a song by Dyalla, a wonderful artists originally from New Zealand, currently in the UK. I support her on Patreon since years and that includes the right to use her music in exactly this way (and also for videos/vlogs, should I decide to make new ones again

@jwildeboer Superdrive? Isn't any USB-connected enough?

@lobingera Most of the time, yes. But a superdrive has some extra tricks up its sleeve when it comes to correcting audio reads.

a) I see
b) The need of correcting audio reads - when you anyway convert to lossy formats - is close to a hype topic. But yes, in uncompressed you might see the need.

@prokrastinix You can make private copies for personal use legally even without owning the original medium. That's why you pay a fee with every USB stick, hard drive etc. Libraries have specific contracts with the publishers that include exactly that right for you as their member. However: you can only copy unprotected content. This is typically no problem with music CDs, but with DVDs/BluRays that is different. More in German at e.g. https://irights.info/artikel/privatkopie-und-co/5090

I made a new thread to explain the right to a private use copy of digital media under German law at https://social.wildeboer.net/@jwildeboer/113051541486988169 if you are interested in that part. And now I will go shopping with my iPod in my pocket, filled with fresh music

Just in case you like the artist of the music you ripped, give support! Go to shows, buy a shirt or maybe the CD/LP, even if you have it already ripped οΈ -
