Music Swapping Legal:

Music swapping is legal…in Canada. Holy cow, check out this ruling from the federal courts in Canada:

"No evidence was presented that the alleged infringers either distributed or authorized the reproduction of sound recordings," von Finckenstein wrote in his 28-page ruling. "They merely placed personal copies into their shared directories which were accessible by other computer users via a P2P service."
