These 'rights' are there, but there is a HUGE catch-ya. You may only perform said copying if the source material is not protected by a 'digital lock'. For example copying an audio cassette would be OK, copying a DVD (as it most likely uses the CSS content/market protection scheme) would not.... When applied to modern media, the distinction becomes even harder to measure. Simple copy protection on an audio CD might just be the presence of a data track with 'special code' along side the audio. So does this mean that holding shift down means you are breaking the digital lock? Any application/code which breaks a 'digital lock', regardless of the purpose, would become illegal to own/distrubute/etc....
