How do you feel about Limewire, Kazaa and other free filesharing programs?

That is not good think for the singers because they need many to create new sounds but I like to download from p2p sistems because is easy fast and I don't pay many.

well it is stealing no matter how you look at it.and ive used them a lot in the past its real easy to do and to justify but never the less it is stealing from others so its not right

it cannot be considered stealing but its not the best thing also. artists and record companies are having a loss because of these softwares. but i dont use them because most of them have spyware in them and they take a lot out of ur computer ram.

I'm always sketched out about downloading music since it is techinically illegal. I guess its a game of chance and we all take risks by downloading. I personally use Limewire and haven't used Kazaa in forever. I don't really download very much music anyways, just occasionally.

I don't think that they programs should be out there. I wish they would ban them. Every one that is downloading is stealing from the people who made the music or movie.

I like them because I can get music for free. Artists are greedy. They get so much money from other means...concerts, merchandies, web sites, etc. I'm making enough to pay my bills and they want me to shell out 20 dollars for a dang cd. No thanks, I'll just download the songs that I want. lol.

I don't see how it's stealing if we're allowing to share our own music. I use limewire all the time, and haven't had any problems.

just think about the singer whose songs u are downloading. imagine yourself to be at their place. does it not HURT you?? it can never be justified. and KAZAA is the worst p2p software i have ever seen in my life

I do not feel good about downloading CDS, movies, or anything, but what can you do? Some people just can't afford the price tag. Some people just decide to be miserish. My friend's dad earns $450,000/year+ and he still pirates music. I mean, come on! If you can buy a $300 ipod, can't you cough up $1 or $2 for a CD? They should charge surcharges on stuff they know will be used for piracy. Like an extra $20 on the Ipod. Noone feels it when buying something $300-400. Then, you use the money to help out the Music Industry.
