Fear not, Lkorrow. The 61,000 songs I was offering Nemo are all oldies with no copyright. I have far too much respect for government to ever want to break the law...

Well, I was wrong, those music titles are gone. No loss, as they were real oldies, like Beatles in the 60's and I have them on the original CDs or vinyl bought back in the day.

I don't listen to music on PC or iphone, as I'm losing certain frequencies of my hearing and don't bother with music much except on occasion in the car or if I'm just in the mood for it. Rightly or wrongly, I figure the more noise you listen to the worse the hearing will get. But then I do listen to 77 WABC talk shows in the car or 1010 for traffic reports and switch to music, unless my ears are having an episode. Sometimes music through the PC speakers bothers my hearing, feels like I'm going deaf. Then it recovers. Don't know why that is.

Now what I forgot to mention re: Win 10 is what I used to do sometimes was play my music CDs and Christmas DVDs on my PC's DVD player. Earlier this year I went to play a dvd. Low and behold, it wouldn't play because it said the drive doesn't support dvd. I looked at the device and it says its a cd player. What I bought from Dell was a fairly high-end DVD player/recorder and I think I got Blue Ray support, although I never got around to playing with that (bad investment, disks too expensive). Anyway, the system says the driver's up to date and the device is a cd player and it won't take my dvds. I don't get how this could be, at all. That is part of what I thought was someone hacking me. Maybe it was Win 10 updating my driver? Hard to figure.

I do know someone hacked me or otherwise accessed my system, because my bio was updated with bogus stuff and some entries deleted and some of my writing and research, including the best document find I ever made, on the Saudis, disappeared. Very disturbing. I'm thinking it was because I was a journalist focusing on NS or was on RB where Obummer types hung out and they checked me out and tried to sabotage me. But that's just a theory.

Back to songs, there was talk out here of copying a disk full of songs and giving them to someone else. I think this is illegal and you should reconsider. Then, old music with expired copyright music, is fair game, right? I don't know how that all works. Few years ago, there was a change in attitudes and crackdown on music sites and they started selling songs individually in digital form. As far as I know, it's ok to tape a tv program to view later for personal use.

Speaking of copyright, I'm wondering if screenshots of tv programs, like some people use to get a photo of a person for their online article, or even publishing a tweet is legal. I thought there was an argument years back over whether a frame was a complete work or part of a larger program that was the work and, thus, quotable by using a frame. Or whether it's legal to put a foreign document like a Saudi gov't press release or minutes of a conference in an attachment in a book.

Have to research this digital age stuff one of these days.
