Is not allowed unless you have the copyright
owner's permission, or do it for purposes
specifically mentioned in the law.

No it's not. For starters, you do not distribute the
CD you've made, because if it were to contain copyrighted
material, it would certainly be a copyright violation
to distribute it, even if it contains files you claim
first sale on (just ask the RIAA, they'll straighten
you out).

So you argue that making a copy of a file contained
in a tarball isn't making a copy? That's so dim it's
no wonder I don't see the light.
