Ok, I was told once that as long as you purchased the music,
*you* could do whatever you wanted with it as long as *you* don't
receive *ANY* reimbersment what so ever.  In other words, you may
copy it, perform it, rearrange it, as long as you dont receive money
or try to claim it as your own.  So in the original example of the
church choir copying for its members as long as someone had purchased
the original it would be ok. (NOTE: that's what I was told, I'm not
saying this is Gospel) (no pun intended) (well ok, maybe a little one).
It also sounds logical, if you don't go overboard (like making 40000000
copies and mailing them to everyone in the world).  The example was
given that say you buy a video , then have your friend over
and you both watch it.  As long as you didn't charge your friend(s) they
can't touch you.  Well, I await the response with bad breath.
