Murfie customer here. 125 CD's
Not surprised this happened, not particularly upset.
Years ago I moved to Sonos, did not have a CD player anymore, and did not want to go through the trouble of ripping and storing (where?) my collection. So this was great.
When I started using Apple Music, they had everything anyway for $10/month, and never bothered to use Murfie.
If I ever thought I had something valuable, I would never have shipped them to some startup.
- Shivetya 7y agoI have always wondered, I have ripped hundreds of CDs which sit in boxes which i never expect to access again; i do not even own a cd player. do I need to keep them indefinitely? what if they were lost, would I be obligated to delete the rips?
- curtis3389 7y agoIANAL, but here's a section from the relevant law: https://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#117 https://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#117 Based on that, I don't think you would need to delete them.
- rwallace 7y agoAs I understand it (usual disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer; if you want to be sure, ask someone who is): - If you sell or give the CDs to someone else, you are legally obliged to delete the rips. - But if you toss them in a landfill, you are free and clear.
- paulie_a 7y agoI don't own a CD player. But for a few local bands and more major ones I bought them because while I can get them on Spotify. I wanted a permanent copy so ripped them to 320k and flac. Just in case. Those three or so were special to me.
