I've been buying cds like crazy so I can listen to them while I run. I just want to make sure I am not doing anything wrong.

No, once you have paid for the cd, it is legal for you to do whatever you want with it.
The illegality of music comes into play when someone else downloads a song or your cd online when they have NOT purchased the song or cd.

According to the RIAA, just looking at a CD in electronic form will give you the rope to hang on..

No, it isn't illegal. In fact, that's why most people buy iPods; so they fill it with all of their own CD's.

Those businessmen would even like you to pay everytime you listen. But for any artist the real satisfaction is when more & more people listen. Respect the artist not the businessmen.

It's okay if it's for personal use and you purchased the cd.

As long as you do not let some download your Ipod or share you file with them, you are completely legal.

As long as you own the original you can make as many copies for your own use as you wish, it is only illegal when you sell the copies

No, but it is illegal to allow people to download it off of you.
