It doesn't affect me, but what about if you download to your internal HDD on your lappy that has a external HDD with all your music on, sort the tags and check the files, then transfer the files to your external HDD to use connected to another computer for playout ? Would you still need produb or would it not be needed as the file is technically still on the same drive ?

Am I the only one having problems understanding that post?
If you are transferring the tracks from the internal HD to the external HD then you need Produb. From the situation you have described, surely you'd be making a copy of the original download to the external drive or am I missing something here??

For £200 you can buy allot of cd's, but you will not have reciepts or any proof of purchase.
But for £200 you can buy allot of music online - store it to one harddrive (ie your laptop) only and not have to legally purchase the produb.
Save your self the time and effort - Sorted.
Forget CD's (they are dead almost and make you look like an old school DJ) just get high
bitrate tracks and compilations as you can get some good deals out there.

Still need it I think if your moving and storing music on different drives.
Thats how they get you. I am pretty sure they are ditching produb anyway soon as
they cant enforce it so this whole post is a waste of time anyway.
ADMIN NOTE TO ALL MEMBERS: Please take no notice of the last statement above in Toby's post. There is no evidence to support such a statement, and Toby should know better than to post such a dangerous statement on a thread giving advice about ProDub. The current regulations state that if you are either format shifting, or making a copy, you require ProDub and you are breaking the law if you don't have it. The only reason I have not deleted Toby's statement is because it has already been referred to / quoted in subsequent posts.

Toby - what are you basing this on?
Until advised otherwise from an official source ProDub is still required for format shifting and shouldn't be avoided based on speculative statements like this.
