Actually its illegal to keep a copy of the music after you've sold it to anyone. When you sell music you're not selling the actual music, you're selling the license to that music. So in partial answer, the judge really can nail you for sharing files on your hard drive because both parties end up with a copy where only one (or zero! copy was purchased. However you have a point with the radio thing. Recording off the radio is really no different from 'recording' off the internet. That would be a good argument if you're sued But that aside, the RIAA deserves anything they get from P2P - they've been price fixing music for years and its time they got smacked.
