Reinstate the private copying exception, allowing people to rip their own CDs

Petition Details

Last year the coalition government legalised the copying of CDs and MP3 files for personal use. A few weeks ago that regulation was quashed by the High Court.

We want the government to revise the private copying exception so that it complies with the ruling, and reinstate it.
