I guess Carl won't be getting any money for those tracks. You do know you could have just bought them. I doubt the library intends their CDs to be ripped.

Although I know many people have done that at some time I just don't think I would be announcing it on a forum of working musicians without expecting some sort of negative response. Personally I always like to own the original recording with the album cover and side notes. It rewards my favorite artists for music they have made that I love and encourages them to keep recording and providing me with future musical pleasure.
