Copying Music Legally

From now on, all music lovers will no longer have to worry about breaking the law whenever they fill their MP3 or make a mix CD to play in the car.

For ages it has been the case that any time a person made a copy of music (such as uploading music onto an MP3) it was technically against the law- an infringement of copyright.

Thankfully this has now changed as the industry agreed that a user should not be punished for changing the format of their music. So long as the user sticks to the rules (you are not allowed to give away or sell the copied material or the original and it must be for personal use only) you are no longer breaking the law. HURRAH!
