Indeed, Dutch and Belgium legislation, for example, permit making 
copies for personal use, which originates from recording the radio with 
a tape deck, which is basically what you are trying to do.
I think US legislation is more strict and only allows personal copies 
where one has both the original and the copy, e.g. copying a CD to your 
(licensed) MP3 player.
