You'll need to look at the law in your own country.
In the various statutes I've looked at, even if it's illegal for personal use, it's only a civil offence. I.e., the government won't prosecute you, but copyright holders could sue you if they found out and wanted to do so.
Caveat: I am not a lawyer, I might be mistaken, and the laws in your country might be different.
