All of the fair usage legislation, that was introduced into UK Copyright Law in 2014, was overturned by A High Court challenge by the (not so greedy) music industry, in 2015. Consequently it is still illegal, in the UK, to make any sort of copy of digital media even as back-ups for personal use only. You do not own the content of a CD / DVD / BD, you only own the media that it resides on. The music / film is licensed to you, for your use (or any other uses that you hold licenses for) and in the UK that license prohibits copying or format shifting.
Given all of the streaming services available, this is ludicrous in 2019 but Sir Paul McCartney, Cardi B and Taylor Swift still have to pay for their butlers and chauffeurs some how. |
