Does  this mean that if we record on music CDs we can assume that copyright 
 obligations have been taken care of?
Paying only 15% more for Music CD-Rs  seems a cheap way to handle copyright 
issues.
 
 
    That is my understanding.  The  extra 15% (or whatever) goes directly 
to RIAA to distribute among their poor,  starving musicians.
 
    I've been buying spindles of 100  regular CD-Rs from Staples when they 
are on sale for $15 -- and those sales  occur quite often.  I just looked on 
the Web and found 100-spindles of  Music CD-Rs for $17.  So the 15% figure 
is about right.
 
    Yes, avoiding the copyright issues is  worth a few pennies!
