Cool... If I read this correctly things like "archiving" old arcade game
ROMs for MAME is now legal. From the article:
"For computer software and video games that require machines no
longer available, copy-protection controls may be circumvented for
archival purposes. "
I assume that "archival purposes" includes personal use.

your iPod. Here's the article:
