If you bought theCD and the MP3 player is yours than no it isn't illegal. Putting the music on someone elses MP3 player is illegal and\or selling your MP3 player with music on it is illegal. Hope this answers the question.

You can copy the music you have purchased onto your own computers and iPods and you can burn it on to a CD for safe keeping. It is illegal to supply the music to anybody else either giving it for free or selling it.

Your wrong. In uk it's illegal to copy music you own , on to pc disk or where ever. iTunes is breaking the law by allowing you to do this. This might change soon however

Yes, it is legal, as long as you are the one who bought the CD. If you can extract the file from the CD, then it is legal to drag it to iTunes for further play and use. Buying the songs in the CD is like buying the songs on iTunes, since both are legal when you put the songs into iTunes.

Yes, it is legal to rip a borrowed CD onto your computer. But the thing that makes it illegal is burning it onto one of those CDs that you can do whatever with.

How do you download songs on your mp3 player legally?

There's nothing illegal about copying songs from CD's you have purchased or paid downloads to an MP3 player for your own personal listening. The legal issue arises when someone attempts to profit from on-selling or unauthorized distribution of songs. Connect your MP3 device to your computer, usually through a USB cable or Bluetooth connection. Go to the drive and folder where your songs are stored and copy/paste to the MP3 player. If the songs are on a CD, import the CD into your music player program (like Windows Media Player and iTunes) in MP3 format. Then go the drive and folder where your songs are stored and copy/paste to the MP3 player.
