I don't really have a problem with it. As far as I can see it hasn't hurt the music industry, whatever they claim, and if someone gets sued it's their fault for not protecting their identity. I used to download everything but then I started buying and now I buy all the time, so I never have any money by the middle of the week -_-

God bless Canada! It's perfectly legal up here. The courts deemed it not differently than photocopying a page from a book (although I find photcopiers way more difficult to use).

Nope, I see nothing wrong with it. Download three full CDs just two days ago in fact. ^^;

I don't think there's anything wrong with it personally, I mean, the majority of people who do tend to download music go and buy the CDs as well, they just don't tend to realize it....XD
ANyways, though I have no objection to it, my family does...XD
So I download songs on my neighbors PC and burn CDs there....XDD
I got bored today, during my computer lit class, and began to wonder....who are you people!!??Then it hit me....you're you!
So if you're you, and I'm me, what happens to the people on Santa's knee? Which brings me to point number two, Santa Claus. For years this man has evaded my questioning, using the excuse of resting for the holidays, or
preparing for X-Mas, but now I know the truth. Tne reason Santa Claus avoids
my questioning lies in the one person who has complete control over him.....
RUDOLPH THE RED NOSE REINDEER!!!!
Who else could dominate Santa Claus like that!? Not many...not many *nods*
In conclusion, the elephant in my brain dances like a monkey on a sugar
high, while the squirrels eat the nuts they spent July gathering, the kitties go BOOM BOOM!!!, and all the little boys and girls of the world sleep a heavenly sleep...
*light fades and shines on me*
Thank you for joining me here on my daily insanity bit...
Please, come again, as next time, we explore the truths behind the Easter Bunny...The Muffin Man, and Old McDonald.

I think it's ok to get free music, it's paying for it that I don't like. I'm still trying to find a site to where I can get free music without having to pay a signing up fee. If anyone knows a site where I can get FREE music with NO charges, plase PM me a link to the site, thanks.

I say it's fine to download songs. Hell, I have...okay I lost count but it's a lot :P
It's okay, I mean some bands or songs are quite hard to obtain so it's easier to just simply download it.

music.download.com (it's not my site so it's not really advertising, and I am providing a link to where people can greatly benefit from [and possibly stop downloading commercial music illegally]) has some mainstream bands available for download, so you should check that out (also they have thousands of other artists and songs available as well).

Of course its okay what do people have against it? Geez..
It's a thing called having morals, and no it's not ok. Being a nineteen year old, you should be able to figure that out why on your own.
