I thought the woman who spoke on copyright at IALLT2003 put that notion
to rest.  Space shifting, as you call it (and a good term it is) is not
found anywhere in copyright law.  Someone with a better (i.e., younger)
memory might recall the details.

 The only reason for not tossing out the cassettes is probably proof of
ownership... and oh, did we have the rights to transfer to another media
because the original media was crumbling away? But that's an entirely
different issue!.... Otmar Foelsche


Yes, that is a different issue. Could we discuss it? I've been trying
to determine this for some time. The consensus seems to be "no," but I
thought the legality/copyright niceties of "space shifting" media were
still being hashed out in the courts.
