Is Fair Use In Peril?

Is Fair Use In Peril?

When we awoke on December 30, we found our in-boxes full of emails linking to <I>The Washington Post</I>'s <A HREF="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/12/28/AR20071… Uproar: Record Industry Goes After Personal Use"</A>, which reported that the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) were charging that Jeffrey and Pamela Howell's transfer of 2000 legally purchased recordings to his computer as MP3 files represented "unauthorized copies" of copyrighted recordings.

missing turntable

Hi all! I rescued a Kenwood Spectrum 890 System from the garbage complete with speakers but the turntable is missing. I put everything together (there was a bunch of manuals in the pile, thank God! which is how I knew the model) and it worked, actually it sounded wonderful at least to these simple ears. Now as it so happened there is a record store nearby that has all this vinyls and I'm wondering how it would sound. Which brings me to this forum and ask for any suggestions for a turntable.

usb DAC & preamp; pc <-usb-> NAD 2100?

I've got a NAD 2100 amp ( not an integrated amp - no volume control ) which I love. My preamp has died

To catch up with the times, I'm considering putting my cds on a PC, then using a usb dac to connect to the amp. But none of the reasonably priced DAC's ( e.g. stereo-link ) have any vol control.

I've googled around and seen some usb preamps designed for recording from mic's or vinyl. Would these work?

I first saw the Shure SE530 at the <A HREF="http://blog.stereophile.com/ces2006/010606shure">2006 Consumer Electronics Show</A>, when it was dubbed the E500. The '500 shared the current product's three-armature driver technology and in-ear, sound-isolating, sleeve fitting scheme, but that early prototype seemed almost crude in comparison with the SE530.
