Seth,
Couple of questions:

>(this excludes MP3's and computer CD-R drives).
Does that mean makin MP3 versions and copying a CD
using CD-ROM recordable drives is, strictly speaking,
illegal?
>Copying tapes is legal, Copying CDs to tapes is legal,
>Copying a CD to a CD (using a home Audio CD-R deck) is

Here's what someone I know does: He buys lots CDs,
makes CD copies using his audio-CD recorder, and then
sells off the original for a lower price. He claims
that he consulted a lawyer to ensure that he was doing
nothing illegal. Is he--and his lawyer--right?
