Nope its still very grey. Some copyright holders are now claiming that copyright on an item covers the data and the media it is stored on, and that removing the data to a different media (even say from a DVD to another DVD) is not covered by the copyright law.

One of the test cases flying around is a guy who copied a CD to use in his car so that if his car got broken into he wouldnt lose his original.
