I probably didn't hit the right key.
Copyright: In times of cheap, easy and high quality copy mechanisms
open to most people, Copyright is more important than ever. No question.
The original question was on sample exchange or trading.
The idea to disallow me to (re)sell the assets I bought is questionable.
This idea certainly comes from the fear, the seller probably still owns
copies of the media he sold.
I do not have insight in these industries, how much it costs to produce
a sample cd, but I know that the costs of a single copy are very low,
the list prices are pretty high, the street prices (e.g. on ebay) are
in between.
I don't have a clear understanding on these topics, so some sort of
discussion would be fine, but probably doesn't fit into emails.
(Some discussions can already be found in the archives, I think)

This is certainly an interesting topic. There is however perhaps some
difference between software and samples. Samples are in fact audio
recordings and are therefore protected by International Copyright
Law, the Berne Convention, etc. I don't have time now but one could
look at CISAC's website or BIEM for info on this....
