DVD burning..

[zhmmy harper]

When does it become illegal, at extracting files, decoding, burning a new 
disk, having it in your possession OR actually playing it???  Has anyone 
defined this yet?  Is it legal to burn a backup copy if you own the original 
(either CD or DVD)?

Is it illegal to capture parts of CDs or DVDs, modify them, then incorporate 
them into new and original music or video?  How much modification is 
required before a file is considered your own artistic effort?
