Chris,
Actually, that's not quite true. The courts say you may make ONE
archival of the ORIGINAL software. You may not make as many copies as you want
(no matter who has them) nor may you crack the original and then keep the
cracked copy.
In addition to the above, the courts have also maintained that routine
backups of your storage media (backup of an HD) is perfectly legal even though
it does constitute an additional copy.
