Copying CDs

CD Copier is a convenient tool for making copies of your CDs. The most common reason for making a copy of a CD is to create a working copy of a CD and archive the original in a safe place.

NOTE: CD Copier is designed to assist you in reproducing material in which you own the copyright or have obtained permission to copy from the copyright owner. Unless you own the copyright or have permission to copy from the copyright owner, you may be violating copyright law and be subject to payment of damages and other remedies. If you are uncertain about your rights, contact your legal advisor.
