Andy, you couldnt be more wrong.

When you purchase any copyrighted material, you do have the right to make a
personal copy. As long as you don't sell it. Also, if someone does sell
their origional copy, legaly they must destroy their backup copy.

Even Dahmler-Chrysler can be wrong. Their lawyers write them, puting the
wording in their favor. I'm sure any good lawyer can pick it apart. It's
all about wording.

P.S. Don't chastise me or anyone just because you THINK you are right.
