Engadget has a post regarding a Washington Post article regarding a man
who is being sued by the RIAA for copying his own cd's. The RIAA's
position is that all copying is unauthorized regardless of intent.

I just know a lot of you guys do like most people and make copies of the
new cd's that you buy so that you can keep the master at home and keep
the duplicate in your car. Well...now you know what the position the
industry has on this.

You can thank your legislators for failing to codify the concept of fair
use.
