Music Downloading Question?

[Capone]

I just found a bunch of old CD's that I used to listen to but a lot (10 or so) of them are scratched so bad that they can't be played and even more of them (20+) are missing. Would it be legal for me to download the CD's that are scratched? What about the ones that are missing?

Right... Sure...

Yes it'd be illegal, but I wouldn't let that detur me. Next time make MP3 backups.

for the ones you have that are scratched, try a proggy called "exact audio copy" (EAC for short)
It has done wonders for a few of my scratched cds.
