I was reading some articles at zeropaid.com the other day and noticed an interesting conclusion in one. Up here in Canada we have a tarrif on blank audio media that goes to the record companies. Each blank CD or tape(and soon possibly more) has a small tax added to them. The conclusion was that if I am paying that fee, and it goes to pay the record companies, then I have paid for the music that I copied onto that CD, and therefore do not need to pay again for it. Leading to the possibility that, if I was sued here in Canada, I could just show them the CD's I burned of my music and say "I paid the company for this!". I might actually work too... heh.
