It's shady in the same way copying playstation games is... Some people will tell you it's allowed, others won't. I have yet to see a court case make a definitive call on this. (not that I'm an expert)
The thing they seem to be taking offense w/ is if you are making that album that you legally own available across the network to others who don't own it.
In other words, if the RIAA can't get anything from you, they have no proof that you have anything and thus no case. They are trying to scare everyone into not sharing, which would solve their problem.
