Abstract

The article presents the author's comments on copyright laws regarding digital data accessibility in Australia. Both the act of ripping the CD and the act of copying it are illegal in Australia. However Australia does not have a fair use provision in its copyright laws, but this situation could change due to proposed amendments to the law that would allow limited fair-use copying, announced by the Attorney-General, Philip Ruddock.
