You said format conversion was illegal, copying for your own use was not.

Now I'm really confused.
Format conversion (eg ripping a CD that you've bought, to your iPod) is illegal. But nobody, including the industries involved, thinks that it should be; it's really just an archaic oversight in our copyright laws. Hence it's technically illegal, but never, ever, prosecuted.
