Just wanted to know if anyone is recording any BB's frm around the world which they are willing to sell to me. I HAVE:

UK BB
1
2
3
4

USA BB
3
4

I found the US show really boring. But i just saw a 6 minute clip of USA BB 1. and it looked great, they had the crowed with the format with the viewers voting and stuff, looked abit like UK BB 1.

so if by any chance sum1 has that show let me know on here, or any other BBs frm around the world.

Hi Dee

While lots of folks are clearly enjoying learning and sharing their multi-media skills on this site. It may be seen as crossing a line if they were to start discussing how to distribute any by-product of this educational experience

You can see how it goes - someone posts saying yeh I can help, 3 more posts following asking if they can have copies. Before you know it , its a hot thread full of customers and suppliers - on second thoughts, sod it, cut me in for 15% and a seat on the board.

But you see the potential for difficulties.

what ???????? i was just asking if anyone is seeling and BB's.

yes but no-one has any 'rights' to sell copies of any BB.

Im suprised the 'where to download XXXXXXX episodes' have been allowed.

lol you people read soo much into it. Im not saying to make copies from an original, im asking if anyone is selling any dvds or videos of any big brothers from around the world. I dnt think theres a law saying once you buy bb dvds or videos you can not sell them... Just check on ebay... are you trying to say you cant sell bb dvds or videos now?
whats that suppose to mean?

Its the 'recording & selling' that made it such a difficult thread dee. If you'd just asked if anyone had any pre-recorded videos/DVDs from other series there wouldn't have been a problem.

Folks can only read what you write - not what you meant

the XXXXXX(meaning BB USA episode 1 ect) episode means that it is illegal to down load BB episodes via IRC/P2P as they are owned/copyrighted by the production company

and you did ask if any one had recorded BB's so you can buy them

of course you can buy/sell original DVD's

Did i say i was downloading anything from p2p or irc?

Browncube let me tell you something about distrubuting copied dvds or videos.

It is LEGAL to record bb of the tele and sell the video as a private auction on ebay or make a personal transaction on the net. It is ILLEGAL to sell copied dvds or videos as they are copyright protected BUT can be used for renting.

so please dont make assupmtions on what i want to download and from where cos i didnt mention notthing about downloading anything or notthing about buying copied dvds.

THANK YOU!

lol browncube you are a wise one to speak. You telling me about how it is illegal to download of p2p and irc but hey what do we have here?

From looking at the other thread seems like you downloading episodes of the net. TUT TUT it is illegal you know that right?

In my posts I have never said you have d/l any episodes - I was just commenting on other threads that have been allowed on this forum.

I know its illegal to d/l files but I also drive over the speed limit

some facts about home taping

Is it legal to record TV programs on my home recorder?

Yes, of course. You are permitted to record a program for your personal use. This is the easiest, 100% legal way to get a copy of that special episode.


Is it legal to make a copy of a tape that you recorded and give that copy to a friend?

No, it is not legal to make a copy for another person (even though many people do it). You are only permitted to record for your own use.


Is it legal to trade or sell the tape that you recorded on your home recorder?

No, you do not own the rights to the material, and may not transfer the material to another person. While you may find people on the Internet who are trading tapes, this practice is not legal.
Can I purchase a licensed copy of a TV program episode?
Maybe, very few are readily available. Certain tapes have been released commercially, and a few others are available from networks and third-party services.


Is it legal to make a copy of a licensed video purchased from a commercial source and give it to a friend?

No, certainly not. It would be a copyright violation, just as if you were to make a copy of a movie or other video. It doesn't matter whether or not you are doing it for profit.
