  I posted concrete evidence in this thread. I was just being non-aggressive and diplomatic in my wording here. It's also useful to stay a least a little bit vague, because we're not discussing very specific cases, people are asking general questions and making general statements. Whether or not something will get you into trouble is not something you can answer definitively without actually litigating the issue in court. Fair use has gray areas. * Edit, just to attempt make this more concrete: "personal use" is not an allowed exception under US copyright law, unless you're using it strictly for backups (fair use). But "Flights to Rome" isn't a US work, the website is authored by Germans, and hosted in Ireland on an AWS server owned by a US corporation but subject to both local and international laws. It's likely that the Berne Convention governs this example. In any case, it's safest to assume you can't copy the material legally.
