Now that's sensible legal advice: It must be illegal because I say so. I'm not saying it isn't (no way of knowing without mentioning the country in question), but there are certainly legal systems that allow for a lot more legal freedom that the US. I for one am legally entitled to copy audio CDs for my own private and personal use (or make such copies for a third party). They do charge a few cents of "blank media levy" for the CD-ROMs I buy, though. Is it a better system? Not necessarily, but It's certainly different.
