As far as I'm aware, there is nothing illegal in making a back up copy of a disc for your own personal use. I'm sure Sharon will correct me if I'm wrong though. No reason either that the person may perhaps have installed the disc on their PC and then sell the original........... I'm not condoning what they are doing though.

Just found this which answers it I think:

"First, the act of copying the CD for personal backup is legal ONLY if the CD does not have any form of copy protection on. The fair use exception is quite narrow, but it does allow copying a CD for personal backup. However, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act makes it illegal to circumvent copy protection for any reason. Many CD's are copy protected (even though computers often don't recognize the protection), and many others are not."

So you can copy an unprotected disc for your own use but not a protected one. I don't know if Joanna's discs are protected as I've never tried to copy one (wouldn't know how! Lol) but again, I'm sure Sharon can let us know.
