The Story of Slimderella: a cautionary tale about the slimming industry
Slimderella said:
This is a tongue-in-cheek comic strip about an average girl named Slimderella, who, under the suggestion of her Flabby Godmother, embarks on a quest to become thin by signing up with a local slimming centre. Along the way, she bumps into CASE, learns a thing or two about how the industry operates, and eventually gets her happy ending.
Recommended by Anonymous Coward: "My friend and I did this project for a class, and are hoping to increase awareness about local slimming centre practices through this comic, so that at the very least people go in with their eyes open."

With the above in mind, when one buys a CD, one is buying the right to listen to the CD as and when one wishes. The purchase of a CD does not mean one has bought the rights of reproduction from the copyright owner which is why in the newspaper article today, it is stated that you can't rip songs out and place them into your MP3 player. The rights that in in question here is the exclusive rights of reproduction that has been conferred on the copyright owner.
