I'm just wondering if ppl on this site pay for their music. I do if the artist makes me, but if the artist approves of sharing their music, then I don't. Luckily, most of the bands I like don't make you pay for their music and let you download it for free.

"But if you can download it for free, why pay?" I'm sorry for my obviously dated view of the state of nature, but I think that this attitude is exactly what is wrong with EVERYTHING today. An artist puts some effort into producing a work. He makes the mistake of offering it up on the net or more likely someone else ripped it and posted it without the consent of the artist and with not a penny's payment. You come along and download the work with not the first thought of offering any payment to the artist. Worse, you strongly suggest this it is foolish to make any payment. "Finders, keepers!"
"What is mind is mine, what is yours is negotiable!" A pox on the entire "me first" generation(s). Bob

That's fine. The key is that YOU bought the song. You can do anything you want with that song as long as you don't sell it or give it to someone else. A minor caveat -- you can't play the same song on two different systems at the same time. The copyright statement and/or EULA might say different, but at least this is morally defensible. Bob
