Is it a copyright violation if we copy and paste other bloggers' items?

Even with full identification and credit, it is technically a violation.  A quick note to the blogger for permission should clear it up and I'm sure they will be happy to share and increase their readership.

I don't see where it is a bit illegal for you to make the image as long as you aren't redistributing or reselling copies of the game for profit and gain. That is the copywrite act you hear everyone screaming about. As long as you only copy it for yourself to load up with a virtual drive or something like that to keep the game cd in good condition nobody would ever know unless you tell them.

In my opinion if you put something out in public space you should expect it to be public. Also since it is not copyrighted it is not protected in the fact that someone can come along and use what you say in another public forum without giving you/blogger credit. \n If the blogger has any common sense/civility he should let his friends know that what they say could end up on his blog just like a journalist should be letting his quotes know that they will end up in print/ public view.

No...it is copyright infringement....I would seek permission first....and then you can acually sell the permission...lol...and make a profit.\n\nCopyrights are very easy to obtain...and there is not always a record of it. BE CAREFUL.

Before you assume that content that you created is entirely yours, check the Terms of Service on the site where you blog - in some cases, they state that once material is published on their service it becomes their property.

So long as you own the original copyies then it is legal to download a copy of it, however please be aware that if you do not own the original then you are violating copyright laws.\n\nI urge the last poster to edit the links, or at least to put a legal disclaimer before you get reported. Its in your interest to do so.\n\nThank You\n\nAnhar Hussain Miah

If the website doesn't explicitly allow you to do so, that's stealing bandwidth and in many cases illegal (and in all cases, unethical).\n\nNot to mention copyright infringements..

Well plagiarism is a huge reason. You can't steal another persons' ideas and use them as your own. Also, another reason would be to give credit to the source where you got your info. Sorry, I don't know a third one....:( \n(Exactly what the guy above me said)

Chances are that the content is copyright by the original creator.  When this happens, they can ask you to take it off, and you must do so, or if there is significant damages, they can sue you.  If it is less than 10% of their site and is for educational purposes, then you can legally copy the info if it is not patented.

If you make an unlicensed copy of a copyrighted work, be it music, video or whatever, you can be in violation of copyright law.\nIt doesn't matter how you make that copy, whether you download it, file-share it, or simply rip a copy of your friend's CD.\nSome sources, for which you pay, include a license fee, a portion of which goes to the copyright holder, so that they get paid for their work...  this makes it a licensed copy, and complies with the rules, so everyone is happy.\n\nCopyright regulations are usually enforced by the copyright holder (or their attorneys), not the government...  in practice, if you are simply ripping a single copy of a CD for your own amusement, they are not going to waste the time and money in tracking you down and taking you to court.\nIf, however, you make copies of their work available online, and hundreds or thousand of copies are being made, then they will take action... especially if somebody else is making money out of it.\n\nThere is a common belief that "If it's on the Internet it's public property"..  it's not, unless the copyright holder has declared it to be "pubic domain" material.  The same is true for pictures that appear on websites.   They're not there to be copied and re-used, although this happens all the time.\n\nThe regulations are not unreasonable... artists make their living from publication revenue...  and you are, effectively, stealing their work by making an unlicensed copy.  If you like their work enough to copy it, isn't it better to keep them in business, so they can do more and nbetter, in the future?

Why don't you just write an original poem then?\nBecause if you copy someone else's works it's considered plagerism, which I'm pretty sure, is illigal.\n\nBut if you are in really desperate need of a poem there are some good ones at :http://www.poemsforfree.com/\n\nAs the name suggests they let you copy their poem for free.

Generally when one copies and pastes someone else's work one gives credit to the author.  In this case that last post came from:\nhttp://www.ecglibrary.com/ecghist.html

u need to cite it if it was a source, your taking someone else's, so yes, it would still be plagiarism

No, it isn't legal to post any copywrited videos of any kind, but like everything else on the internet, the status of legal or illegal really doesn't matter.
