BIG] Hey guys, With the release of the VCR, everyone who owned one probably copied from the TV. If copying a TV program was illegal then everyone with a VCR broke the law. Then at least 90% of the US would have been illegal, and the VCR should have been outlawed. Thanks, Nicholas [Moderator's note: Copying (recording) a TV program *FOR YOUR OWN USE* is legal.
