AFAIK homebrew music CDs will be covered by the same dispensations as tape 
recording - you can make copies for personal use, not for distribution. 

There was a major debate back in the early 70s when cassette recording was 
seen as a copyright infringement.  The record companies were firmly slapped 
down when they demanded a levy on blank tapes!  

There will just be the usual period of bluster from the record companies, then 
everything will be as before!
