I use Rhapsody, even though it's "absolutely free", I still get my music from it.

Well this was helpful.

I have Soulseek on my puter but I was using WinMX with mixed results but now that's dead so with the majority leaning towards Lime for songs - I'm good to go...

I just did a quick search on ares torrent

Xfactor is similar, just links to a bunch of different programs (ares, gnutella and another one). I think its only for macs

I've been using Limewire lately, even though it's tough to find a song absolutely perfect, especially with WWE themes.

If you have mates that basically have every cd you are looking for, Soulseek is good. Other than that, it's not as good as it used to be.

Well, we could talk all day about the moral implications of illegal music downloading. There seem to be a fair number of people who back up their massive pirate mp3 collections with something about "the music industry is dumb" or "sharing doesn't hurt artists" or whatever. All a bit dubious for me -- is it coincidence that music sales started plummeting the exact moment in 2000 that Napster came out? And these days, a lot of artist are selling DIRECT on itunes and etc. -- so when u pirate their songs, you are literally deciding not to pay the person who made the music -- there is often NO record company involved now....

Anyway ... my take is that I tend to use iTunes not for any moral reason, but just because I HATE dealing with the two main problems with limewire/bearshare etc

Problem #1 -- spyware/virus/filth
Problem #2 -- lack of selection

I'm into techno/trance/electronic music almost exclusively, and a lot of the stuff is actually pretty HARD to find on limewire... I could spend hours looking for it but I prefer not.

I tend to search around on iTunes for compliation series that I feel have good selections, and then just buy whole compilations... recently I've been spending way too much money on this series -- http://electricnation2010.com/tracks

Downloading some songs is you know whatever to me...but to want to download an entire album is a cheap bitch move imo. I dont get it.

I need the real deal. The casing, booklet, cd, it's all gotta be there, and plus, if you like the band, you'll support the band.

It's like that with everything. You may think a fucking sofa is overpriced, or a car..but you arent going to break into the dealership or store and run off with the shit just because you feel they arent giving you a fair value.
Same deal with albums imo.

I refuse to download songs though, If the album/ ep isn't worth picking up the song isn't that great either, It's like downloading a scene from a movie... for me anyway. I understand that others feel much different about this.
