So you want to copy your video games and now you wonder whether it is legal? The discussion on the legality is almost endless. Whether copying music, games or videos, manufacturers defend their copyrights.
The Fair Use Act and Audio Home Recording Act of 1992 are two different rights that grant ordinary citizens the right to duplicate disc content. These acts legally permits any citizen to make duplicate copies as long as the one duplicating is identified as the legal owner.
In addition to this the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992 protects video game owners from lawsuits made by manufacturers because of backing up any video games for personal useAs you can see, it is perfectly legal to make copies of games for your personal use, however, there are also laws that protect manufacturers from piracy and illegal distribution of video games.
When you use game copy software to make backups, some important guidelines should be followed:
- You can legally use any game copy software in duplicating any game disc content as long as the disc being duplicated is original and you are the legal owner of the item.
- Inspect its printed material information that normally comes with the game before you start duplicating it. From time to time there might be special regulations for duplicating a specific game.
- It is very important that you understand Copyright Laws. Copyright means that you may not sell, rent, or give away any copies of the video game.
- If in an event you no longer possess ownership of the game disc, you are obligated to destroy all your backup copies of the game.
There are many good game copy software applications out there. A good software will cost you around $40. However, although there are free game copy software products out there, I highly recommend staying away from them. Why? Because most free files are infected with viruses, adware, or trojans. I am sure you do not want to harm your computer, do you?
