Not legal. To any of the above, Well unless you paid for the those movies or music, on a program like iTunes, then you can download them. but other than that No.

I don't know about legel, but I'm pretty sure it's not legal

In Canada, music is legal to download... just not upload. This only applies to 'sound recordings' so videos/software is a no go.

How does that work? Everyone pays a million dollars extra for blank media. 1 DVD-R = $5.00. But seriously, we pay a little bit more because of it... usually pennies more PER disc (which adds up).
