I actually have a similar scenario myself - I have some old cassette tapes I'm converting to MP3 - they either don't exist on CD or aren't worth buying new copies. I'm keeping the insert and getting rid of the cassette. That saves me the storage space of the cassette and a small stack of inserts is negligible to store. I have no moral qualms with such a format shift and I won't be passing on copies to anyone else. |
Sounds like a good answer. Likely never going to be prosecuted, just like removing DRM on ebooks is likely never getting prosecuted.
