You realise we've all been arguing the copying thread so long we seem to
have lost track of what the real issue was:

Whether you are allowed to record a CD onto an MD, then give the MD to a
friend.

Having flogged the recording issue to death and beyond (which was actually
rather stupid because it wasn't the real issue anyway), can we now drop the
copying thread?

The real issue is whether you can give the copied material to other people,
not whether you can record it or not.

Assuming my CD is a legitimately obtained copy, and that I am allowed to
record it onto an MD:
Am I, or am I not, allowed to give the duplication of one of my CDs to
somebody who doesn't already own a copy?

I would say no....
