In other news: not single person who rips their own CDs in all of Europe will give a crap.
Also, the only people still buying CDs don't rip them, and the rest of us have ripped their last CD over a decade ago.
The actual impact of this decision is close to zero, and therefor not a strong argument for copyright reform. Many countries still have outdated laws on the books nobody bothers with, making noise about this just gives the impression copyright reform isn't urgent.
