This is kind of old... but, yes, you are correct, as I said in the original message... you do, indeed, own the media (disks, etc.). You can do whatever you want with them... erase them, store your own data on them, built a three- story structure with them, give them to friends, whatever... but you'd have to pull the data that is still owned by the manufacturer off of them before you make any transfer (unless both of you contact that manufacturer and receive explicit permission to transfer the rights... and pay any fees they may want you to pay). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Carl Steinhilber csteinhilber@graphicmedia.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
