You are more stupid than I thought.

But maybe getting pirates to buy the CDs they stole is a good way for the music industry to boost it's turnover.
please you do realize that DMCA makes you responsible for all expenses regarding a false claim.

I could send you a bill at my hourly rate for the time i spent searching thru my collection.

and the scratched cd would just be an example.

you could buy the cd take the cover say you "lost" the cd, sell the cd to a second hand store.
you could borrow the cd from the library scan the cover claim you started doing that since a girl lost her house based on a threat and wanted to have a proof of backup ...

there are dozen of ways i could "pretend" this was for recovery.

it would cost you thousands to get maybe pennies for the sale.

hell you could even borrow the cd covers from friends and claim that you lost the actual cd.
