I think the records do violate the law. But whether or not police resources should be dedicated to enforcing this law rather than some other law is a matter of opinion. Personally, I'd rather see police patrolling the streets and protecting people rather than confiscating live Jimi Hendrix (for example) recordings from which Hendrix's estate and the RIAA don't get a cut.

So would I, but as I stated above once a complaint is made the police must act on it.
Erm, here in San Francisco, the only thing the cops MUST do is prioritize complaints, and that's because there aren't enough cops to go around.My noise complaints, for example, go to the bottom of the list, and nine times out of ten, the police don't show up.

Well, you may be right. I don't know the rules for the entire country.
