You most certainly did not have permission from the owner of the work to freely distribute the work you paid for.

  I did not distribute it. It was the height of megaupload. I don't think I ever torrented anything. Also, I just thought about it, I'm on a plex server owned by a college friend since 2017, did I broke the social contract by uploading my CDs on it? Or by listening to CDs my friend group put on it. Let's be honest, it's mostly my CDs, I have a truly huge collection, but it was also music we got from the school's nfs, on /share/music. Did that broke the social contract too? Knowing that we have a law that tax every sales of storage, even reconditioned HDD or smartphones.

    Probably? It's not really scalable for me to answer every person's individual questions about how copyright infringement works.
    • orwin 3y ago
      Because it isn't infringement. We pay to make copies. Even people who only stream music are paying to make copies. 20% of storage space's price is given to Universal and their friends.

        ...what? This isn't related to anything either you or I have said in this thread.

          Huh? You really can't see it?
