That is not true! You may make ONE copy. You may ONLY use that copy for personal purposes or educational purposes. You may not sell the copy (which includes giving it to a person for free). You may not charge admission for anyone to use/view the materials. In order to make a copy you must OWN THE ORIGINAL from which it was made. This is per the United States Code.

It IS legal (both parts) - but any form of selling, trading, or distribution is NOT...

Besides, if it NEVER leaves your house, then how are the feds going to know about it in the first place ;););)
