Subject: private use CD--legal or not??
Folks, I just talked to a friend in Georgia. She and her husband are about to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary she wants to make a CD of several of the songs that were important to her and her husband over those years. IT WOULD NOT BE SOLD. It would be presented as a gift to her husband and other guests at the party.

The question is this:

Would royalties need to be paid to the composers of the individual songs included on the CD ???

Thanks in advance,
