It's probably illegal. The question really should be is it ethical ?
My take on this is that it is ethical. Just because the RIAA has a business model that involves taking the risk that people will circumvent their protections and violate the laws they have lobbied to put in place, doesn't make it unethical, especially because there are other business models for releasing digital media without this risk.
Ethics don't change just because laws are passed one day.
Ethics do change when conditions change around your business model. There are many examples. It's caused by progress.
It's time for laws to change, and they will, it's unavoidable.
