However, unlikely as it seems that's the exact premise behind Bopaboo.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.money.co.uk/article/1002168-legal-fallout-could-follow-launch-of-site-that-lets-users-buy-and-sell-second-hand-mp3s.htm"><P>Advertised as "the place to buy and sell digital music" it claims to offer users a completely legal means of making money by selling their 'old' mp3's.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.money.co.uk/article/1002168-legal-fallout-could-follow-launch-of-site-that-lets-users-buy-and-sell-second-hand-mp3s.htm"><P>While this concept isn't a new one, after all people have been selling copies of unused CDs for years, it is wholly open to abuse.  Largely because even after you have uploaded and sold an unwanted mp3, a copy will still remain on your computer giving you the chance to upload it and sell it again and again.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.money.co.uk/article/1002168-legal-fallout-could-follow-launch-of-site-that-lets-users-buy-and-sell-second-hand-mp3s.htm"><P>Granted, Bopaboo do place the responsibility of deleting all remaining copies of an mp3 from your possession once it's been sold.  However, exactly how they'll enforce this rather tenuous request has yet to be explained. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/DD4892B6-C644-42AB-8F03-DA9391808694/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
