Can I offer a whole CD for download? No, you may not upload an entire CD for download.
There is one exception to this rule: if the CD is out of print or cannot otherwise be purchased, you may offer the whole CD. For example, if the CD can only be purchased used (i.e., from eBay, Amazon Marketplace, second-hand record stores), then you may upload the whole CD. However, if the CD can be bought new (i.e., not used) from a primary seller (i.e., Amazon, Borders Books & Music, HMV, Virgin), you cannot offer an entire CD.
What about import CD's? I'm in America and for me to get some of the CD's the only way I could get it is used. But if I were in another country, most likely the issuing country, it would be available from a primary seller. Where would these import CD's fall in the above?
