Is it legal to copy an LP, CD, or pre-recorded tape?
In the US today, it may be legal to copy LP’s, CD’s, etc. for your own private use (such as to copy a CD to play on your walkman). UK law specifically prohibits this, but it is almost never enforced. It is definitely not legal in the US, UK, or almost anywhere else, to copy these sources for commercial purposes, or to give the copies to others. It is as of yet unclear whether you own the rights to sell or give away a copy of a recording if you made the copy on media which was sold with an included digital audio tax.
