Subject: RE: BS: Taping CDs-Stealing?
I've got a CD burner that cost $125, blank CD-R's cost less than a buck when you buy them in bulk and Tower's has a no-questions-asked returns policy.

So every week, I pick up a dozen or so CD's, burn copies, xerox the tray cards and booklet, cut them to size with a pair of scissors and voila, a perfect copy of the music and a close enough copy of the tray card and booklet.

Then I return the CD's to Tower's and pick up some more.

So far, I've copied 600 or so CD's at a cost, including the burner, of about $1.25 a CD.

Tower's puts new shrink wrap on the CD and sells it to the next guy.
