Making copies and giving them away is (was) fair use - there is no profit to be made or expected, and it is just
sharing. I cannot imagine how many miles of cassette tape has been recorded and 'shared'. These uses have been
convoluted and redefined by the big corporations to be now called taking or theft. It will be real interesting to see if
anyone who is currently being sued by the record industry has deep enough pockets to adequately defend themselves.

There are provisions for making backup copies for the personal use of the
purchaser. What we are discussing though is downloading copies that you never
paid for or making copies and giving them away.
