More CD copying...

... from the Silicon Valley Media Law blog.

It seems unlikely that suing consumers over ripping CDS to their iPODs will help win the messaging war, and it seems a court would quickly jump to pronounce this fair use as in the Rio space-shifting case and create some case law they don't want on the books.

So this may be more about the transition to copy protection and DMCA issues, which was the context of the filing that has raised this issue -- the Copyright Office's anticircumvention rulemaking proceedings.
