Default Downloading Music Good or Bad?
Is it right to download music from Limewire, Soulseek, etc . . . ? Or is it just a way of 'sharing' your music with other people. Because this 'sharing' means you aren't buying records, which means artists as well as music stores are suffering. On the other hand, you save tons of $ by downloading and you don't have to buy a CD for only 1 or 2 songs you like on it. Which side of the argument would you fall under?

This one of the biggest things for me, i'm not fond of ordering CDs and half the time I can't find it. So I download it, or im broke as hell.

Hey this thread is knicked from another site lol...
Music is something people should get for free but then it ruins things for people like me *grins*
There's downloading and downloading. One is not good for bands but ok for people but illegal and one is a little worse for people but better for bands...
It's better to stay on the safe side. If you like their music p!ssing go buy it a shop you lazy gits :P Go buy the album and check em out. If you don't like the rest of the album it doesn't matter. I think downloading should be for the bands benefit and/ or just go buy their album and make them no.1... if you're willing to download it then surely it's worth paying extra for the album?
