Creativepart, you seem like a nice guy and appear to truly be in search of knowledge here, so I will do my best to help.

If you make a backup copy or two or three.....that has been tested in the courts and your right as a non-commercial consumer have been upheld. What you are suggesting is that you are selling the original and keeping your backup as a main. When you sell or give away the original, you are assigning your rights to the copyright. Not negotiable! In your post you mention losing the original. The courts have asserted the backup copy was for your use and you are well withing your rights. Additionally, you did not transfer title!

Let me make this clear: as a purchaser of the copyright, you have no authority whatsoever to split or assign the copyright at will. You agreed to the contrary upon purchase. If you transfer title to the original, the copyright moves with it. Your copy then becomes illegal....PERIOD. Again, I believe you are searching for a way to make something very wrong at least partially right, but it just doesn't work that way.

Let's say you have a band, write some original songs, record your cd and the album gets some radio play. The somebody buys 1 cd, backs it up, sells it to somebody else, they back it up and so on down the line. How would you get paid? You would have sold one cd and multiple people would be enjoying the fruits of your labor. How fair would that be?

You have asked for truth and you got it. Any further discussion about right and wrong on this issue will reveal to all your intent. Peace.
