Copyright law with regards to cd ripping for personal consumption

With the above in mind, when one buys a CD, one is buying the right to listen to the CD as and when one wishes. The purchase of a CD does not mean one has bought the rights of reproduction from the copyright owner which is why in the newspaper article today, it is stated that you can't rip songs out and place them into your MP3 player. The rights that in in question here is the exclusive rights of reproduction that has been conferred on the copyright owner.
