Is it possible my purchase is legal, even though the sale may not be?

Considering I have been buying up Zoom product for 2 rigs like mad, I can't complain about waiting on CDs over downloads from them.

The Pop Chart Picks 2016 has been really good to us, and while it stinks I have to wait a bit, its worth it over trying to cherry pick.

It also sucks that you can't download from Zoom directly (and I really hope that changes), but as long as everybody is waiting on CDs it doesn't change much around here.

SBI/SunFly does have limited downloads but I wish they had some kind of notation before I put it in my cart that the US market can't buy it before I go to check out.

KV is still my go to place for downloads for now.

At least the karaoke is flowing there. It might be harder to get to, but at least we can get something ::shrug::

I can think of some arguments in favor of that, but I can't say they would be successful.

By purchasing, you would be inducing the reproduction and distribution, which would make you vicariously liable. Would you be sued for it? Probably not.
