We could name a ton of cases where the judiciary and governments come up with illogical decisions. Most recently, the highest court in a country where everything works upside down - where you basically drive in the opposite direction, where you spend 10 minutes a day counting yards on the meter and where you can enjoy quarter pounder with cheese. I'm talking about Great Britain and the judiciary there, which came out with a statement according to which iTunes and in a way Time Machine illegal software and by using them you are breaking the law.
It all boils down to the fact that, according to the court, it is illegal in the UK to copy any copyrighted content without the express permission of the rights holder. There would actually be nothing surprising about this, but the British court says that this also applies in the case of making copies for personal purposes, for which he can have Apple problem. Even during the installation of iTunes itself, it advertises the possibility to burn a music CD to the computer and have the music from it stored on it, since this was the case until the launch of iTunes Store the only way to get new music on your iPod.
He will probably force such a decision Apple, to remove mentions of the possibility of moving music from CD to PC, minibarely when trying to download iTunes via a UK IP address. According to the British government, creating backups for personal purposes is affecting lost profits for musicians, publishers and retailers, and is one of the reasons why it is now illegal to transfer music from an honestly bought CD album to your computer - to do it legally, you have to buy the tracks twice or subscribe Apple Music Keep the music to yourself. iPhone.

Funny, especially since 80 percent of Macs no longer have a CD drive...
I can already see someone buying the album twice or more, depending on how many devices they want to listen to it on.chatIf I understand this verdict correctly, I will buy music once for the Mac and iTunes on it, and the second time for iPhone, the third time for the iPod and the fourth for the iPad? I guess the court in Britain fell from a great height on its head :-D
Just a poor attempt to regulate users – if nestIf someone pays for the CD, I don't have to buy the CD at all :-))
In conclusion, I will ask.
Does anyone even buy CDs? :-)))
