There is nothing illegal about me recording music for my personal use
from the radio. Same goes for TV.


If you save the recording, there is. You have the right to time-shift. You
do not have the right to archive (which is what's being discussed here).


Yes I do. Anything that comes over the air is mine, for my personal
use. This was an actual court case not too long after VCR's started
getting popular in the early 80's. The case was really brought because
of course everybody skips right over the commercials when they watch
what they taped. The case was won by the defendants, the decision also
stated that a private party can tape and keep for his own personal use
stuff grabbed off the air.
