12. Q - Will consumers still be able to copy their CDs onto their personal computers?
A - Yes. The specification allows consumers to copy (rip) their CDs onto their computers for personal use (on their PC, on their portable devices, on their portable media, etc.). In fact, the specification enables consumers to do so as many times as they wish – as long as they have the original disk.
