So, what exactly is "piracy" vs fair use, especially for material you've already purchased in a different format?
Case 1: Stuff you've purchased once. I own 2000 LPs, mostly purchased new. Obviously, I can't play them on my Squeezebox. Can I 1) Rip the LP to a digital recording? 2) Check out the same CD from the library and rip it? 3) Borrow the CD from a friend and rip it? 4) Download the CD from a free internet site? 5) Buy the CD, rip it, then sell it used? Case 2: Music that I haven't purchased previously. I Borrow the CD from the library and rip it. Can I 1a) Listen, then delete it when I return it to the library? 1b) Listen, and don't delete it? 2) Can I buy the CD used? (No artist or company gets paid). 3) Can I buy the CD, rip it, then sell it used? (The artist and company do get paid).
