However, be careful what Private Label Rights (PLR) products you actually use. You don't want to be caught in a copyright infringement issue later on when you find out the material was stolen from someone else. It won't matter if you didn't know it was stolen material. If you use it, then it's at your own risk.
How can you be certain that the person selling the PLR product is the original creator and owner of that content? Do you personally know the person? Some people that use their "names" on websites and sales pages aren't even their real names. They are just "pen" names or made-up names.
After doing some "Googling" I found a website where someone had asked this question back in 2008, and an interesting discussion occurred from it. Click here to read the forum thread on the Warrior Forum. Nothing in the thread can be used as legal advice, but some of the people ended up saying that the PLR products weren't meant to be used the way the way most people thought, but to be more of a guide for others to create their own products.
It seems like a viscious cycle doesn't it? Another site called Plagiarism Today has an article called, "The Dangers of Private Label Rights (PLR) Content," that does a better job explaining some of the issues around Private Label Products, and about who normally tries to benefit from them. Plagiarism Today also has some other very interesting articles around Plagiarism, so you might want to take a deeper look at it.
