No, no one ever said it was legal anywhere. What was said, is that it's a grey area.

It should also be remembered that CD Freaks is based in Holland where copyright laws are a little more relaxed than in many other countries and what is ok for that forum is not necessarily ok here
Like flips Says, what may go on other forums does not mean it will be accepted here.

I thought you said that they where legal in the US.
Alcohol 120% is legal in the US, but mini-images are not.

Well, if there's no copyright on physical structure then there's no copyright violation on mini images. Since they only contain physical structure info and no copyright protected data at all (all data is removed).

But that is slightly incorrect, all data is not removed, it still has the weak/bad sectors of the copy protection on the image. Again it is a thin grey line we are treading on.
Lets just call it a rest on the topic till legal gets back with us on it.
