Also, in UK with our strict "fair-dealing" (as opposed to USA's Fair Use) none of this is lawful - including ripping CDs for personal use (though that format-shifting was briefly allowed for a couple of years).
Disclaimer: This is my personal opinion; not legal advice.
Obviously, they didn't re-rip music they'd already ripped so technically for popular music, you got 'someone else's' mp3s.

My multi function laser printer has a duplex scanner on it. It can scan pages at quite a rate. The problem is not the scanning, but the accurate OCRing, and for things like magazines, the storage of all those high resolution pages. Right now, I cut out the articles I want to keep from my monthly mags, and just scan those. It seems like a fair compromise right now.
