None needed, you can't prove a negative.

There would have to be an explicit allowance for the copying and archival of
copyrighted works. If you can't provide a citation for such an allowance,
you have no support for your claim.

The citation has been provided, it's the Betamax case. I can copy
anything legally obtained, as many copies as I want by the way, and keep
them for future viewing. Not "future viewing not to exceed XX days from
the broadcast" but at any future date. Once the material is in my
possesion it's mine. I am free to do whatever I want with it for my own
personal use.
