So… Does this mean that all this copy protection crap Sony and other are putting on CDs is illegal? Seems like that would go for CSS on DVDs as well. Rather interesting since MGM and others as part of the MPAA and RIAA have spent the past 5 years villifying the people sustaining our fairuse rights. In fact, they went nuts over Apple’s emphatic claims of Ripping’s legality. I look forward to seeing how this plays out.
