It would be illegal cause you aren't paying money to watch it (like a t.v license), best thing to do if you want to use the internet is to listen on the radio online, radio five live let you listen to them.

Unless it is realeased by the manufacturer or owner of the game for the internet, yes it is illegal. If you made your own roms, ie figured out how to take the game from the gameboy to your comptuer yourself, it is not illegal as long as you dont put it up on the internet.

I am sure its legal since you altered it and are not using it as legal tender or even trying to convince anyone it is.\n\nI get coupons occasionally that look like a hundred dollar bill on one side and on the back side is a coupon for something.  I've seen money that looks real except for the face in the center is Alfred E Newman or some other odd character.\nSo obviously its okay to make a "spoof" or parody of currency, its just not okay to try and pass it off as real.

I had never heard of it so took a look after seeing your question.\nIt looks to be quite good, and there is a reference to ebay on it (Obviously trying to steal some ebay customers).\n\nSo at first glance - yep - it looks good and I will be taking a better look at what they have on sale there. Of course, until you can find someone who has actually bought something, then you will not know for sure, but I might just buy a small item, just to test them out.\n\nI'll post a question if and when I have a go, to let you (And anyone else) know.\n\nHows that? Sorry I did not actually answer your question, but at least I took a look at the site.\n\n:-)

Yes, it's illegal, as a copyright violation. You cannot (legally) electronically duplicate anything that you do not own the copyright to.

I would turn them in, in a heart beat. I sell on eBay almost 3 years now and there is alot of that and other junk going on thats not legal, they need to monitor their site more.

I don't think so, unless your talking about something illegal! If you don't already, try searching for movies from cinemanow.com and/or movielink.com. These sites are legal and charge for movie downloads. Their are thousands of movies in their site. But I don't think movies are available before they are released in stores.

The others are right. It's illegal.\n\nYou can justify it all you want, but it's still illegal.\n\nYou simply paid someone to use their software to break the law.\n\nThe software isn't illegal. It's what you download with it.\n\nIt's like buying a knife. That's perfectly legal. But killing someone with it isn't.

Although it is not announced at the start of every program, what you are actually doing is stealing intellectual property if you are using it to make money.  (Eg: during the Super Bowl you hear "Any reproduction of this program in whole or in part for commercial viewing is strictly prohibited")\n\nIf it's just for information on a blog, then a disclaimer stating where the capture came from should be enough to cover the legalities.

Not illegal at all - eBay just doesn't want that business. If you want to arrange a firearms purchase over the internet (you can't really BUY a gun online unless you're a licensed dealer) then head to one of the links below.

Is it a LEGAL download?\nIf so contact the company you downloaded it from.\n\nIs it an ILLEGAL download?\nIf so, You probably shouldent be watching it anyhow, and since many of the people who create the files are inexperienced and inept, The audio and video tracks get messed up alot, the quility is often poor and well.. you get what you pay for.

I would imagine that's clearly copyright infringement.  I seriously doubt the buyer would get in any trouble, but the one recording and selling them could get in serious trouble if the government wanted to pursue it.  Also, eBay would cancel that auction if they saw it; I know they delete software auctions all the time based on violations of "intellectual property rights".\n\nHere's a link to eBay's definition:\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/copyrights.html\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/recordable.html

That is illegal.  Take that Question to Lymwire or Kaza, it doesn't belong here..  Try Buying A Copy...  You get your own code (for free) with your purchase and the person who put his blood and sweat into creating it might actually get paid a few buck for your effort

Hmm a very intresting site indeed. The only input I can put its probally illegal.\n\nThe reason: All videos that are uploaded to a specfic server is copyrighted righted by the owner of the video. Example if someone uploads to youtube. The owner has copyrighted the video to youtube directly. By copying the video without the owners concent or without providing them the credit of the video infact you have broken copyright laws.\n\nLike gamefaqs or any other text based documents. All information is copyrighted to the owner who wrote them. You need there concent if you are going to move it somewhere else. \n\nHowever if you keep it on your computer for personally use only with no intent to publish, share with anyone other then yourself it is ok. i would not recomend a folder filled with them but maybe a few (3 or 4 max) should be fine. Otherwise it shows intent to steal.

You cannot broadcast videos you purchased for home use by any means, including online. It is illegal without paying the licensing fee, which you would have to negotiate with the distributor of each title.

It's illegal to buy them off of Ebay, the guys that sold me mine got banned for life. And they asked for me to give them back but I used them anyways.
