This is simply NOT TRUE.  There is no difference under the law, yet, between  
making a binary copy, or an audio cassette copy, of copyright music.  I can  
right now make a digital dub of any CD to a DAT.  Perfectly legal. I can  
process it to my heart's content. It's all in what you then do with that copy.   
Distribute it, even to just one friend, and you're now breaking the law.
