And point out that two things have *yet* to happen:
1) Mr Looser hasn't given me a CD.
2) I haven't (ever) given a CD to a Charity shop.
Happy to accept that you have never done what you described. For the sake
of avoiding all risk to you, I will presume you have never taken a copy of
any CD or LP and kept the copy when you gave/sold the CD or LP to anyone
else or threw it away. And that you will never do so. I'll also assume your
initial statement was actually false and you would *not* do what you
described because you realise full well it would probably be a breach of
copyright. That means we don't have to think that you may get into trouble
if David *does* give you a CD. If he does, you won't do as you said. Your
statement was purely for some kind of rhetoric purposes. Given that you now
say that what you said was false it becomes irrelevant to wonder if it was
hypothetical or general. :-)
Odd though that you made so many postings without correcting this. No doubt
pausing for dramatic purposes. Also odd that you even chose a bitrate for
an activity you have never engaged in and would never do. Never mind, maybe
you have a disc whose *data capacity* is '256K' and that was also
misunderstood... Never mind, what you've now said should
disarm any legal eagles who in the future trawl up your statement. ;-
I was just concerned that you'd dropped yourself in it. Thought it was
worth warning just in case.
David, please take care never to send a CD to Keith. Not fair to try and
push him into doing what he actually said, or break his word, even
at the cost to you of a CD!
Happy I can get back to largely ignoring what you write. Mutual, no doubt.
:-)
Slainte,
Jim
