Well there is a p 
t around every corner ,let's hope that they will pay the fine if and when some t**t gets caught 
No so interested in what these people are doing, more worried about little timmy whos just got his MP3 player for xmas and then gets a knock on the door from the BPI. As the general public are not aware of the law and still believe its there right to make a this so called backup....
Just looked at the 'service' prices.
It's cheaper to download 1000 songs - legal mp3s!!!!

I'm sure i've seen that website before. Hasn't this guy attempted to Spam his services on the forum before....Mods?.
not had time to fully check all the details from this site out and correct me if im wrong but are they actually asking you to send them your entire cd collection so they can shrink or whatever they promise to do to them... HELLO! anyone can build a web page and make it look proffesional and promise the earth. could this be a scam, asking unsuspecting people to send in there cds and also pay for the privalige but never to see there precious cds again.

| Discodirect - that's the price per album (ie 10 - 15 tunes) surely? Still for those with more money than sense but... |
Yes, stand corrected!
Reference the BPI comment......

....yet!
Chris, I vagely remember someone offering their services (at a rate) to rip music to a hard-drive a while back, but don't think this is the same 'provider'.
it not a scam , they are advertising in National publications..... and even quote a recomendation from the publication on there website.

I remember some one not so long ago offering a Similar service
It is about time that this whole mess is sorted out
.......... and how do these scammers try to convince somebody that their scam is not a scam.... by advertising in national publications!

Agreed, but since this is offering a service on a commercial level then it would fall into that category especially as the material hasn't been purchased by them, so even if the BPI changed the law overnight, to allow individuals the right to transfer their legally purchased material, this sort of service would still be illegal. However they make it appear on the website this service is basically commercial piracy, which would make them high profile.
I've just spent a few minutes searching on a well known Auction site, a simple search for keywords brought up entire NOW collections offered in Raw MP3 format on DVD for around the price of 2 originals, along with about 500 other similar auctions. - Proof enough of commercial pirates at work on a large scale, and I doubt that this is even the tip of the iceberg.
Perhaps the BPI should run a simular Scheme! 
Then at least they cant have us for breaking the law !!!!!!!
