Uh silly dak...

To repeat: 

It is up to the prosecution of alleged copyright infringement to prove
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_burden_of_proof that a private copy
was made from illegal source, silly.

The link
http://anwalt-im-netz.de/urheberrecht/privatkopie-im-urheberrecht.html
lists several cases that are rightfully considered illegal source vs.
legal source. 

The lawyer also warns about some cases where the prosecution MAY be able
to prove "illegal source" even if the uninformed (ignorant regarding the
market prices of legal non-private copies) maker of a private copy may
think otherwise. Ignorance Is Not Excuse.

The moral is: YOU BETTER KNOW THE MARKET.

See the light now, silly?

alexander.
