CD-Rs, DVD-Rs, or any other forms of recordable media may not be listed on eBay unless they are blank.
Examples
The following are examples of items that may not be listed on eBay:
- Music compilations on CD-R
- The entire first season of a television series on one DVD-R
- Compilation of 500 "freeware" and "shareware" programmes on one CD-R
- A VHS copy of a movie taped off of television
Exception
Sellers may list copies of software, music, movies, television programmes, or games on CD-R, DVD-R (or other forms of recordable media) where:
- the seller is the copyright owner; or
- the underlying material is in the public domain
eBay Guideline:
If you are the copyright owner of the material you are offering on CD-R or DVD-R, make sure you say so in your listing!
Examples
- A local band decides to release its latest album on CD-R. The band may list the album on eBay so long as it is clear from the listing that the band is the copyright owner.
- A buyer purchases an album on eBay that was released by a local band on CD-R. The buyer may not list the album on eBay, even though the band released the album on CD-R, because it violates eBay's Recordable Media policy.
Warning
Listings violating eBay's Recordable Media policy may be ended early by eBay. Multiple violations of eBay's Recordable Media policy could result in the suspension of your account.
