Kazaa Lite is the PC users best choice. All the selection that Kazaa has minus the spyware. And you're anonymous from evil things like the RIAA.

If that fails I'd suggest buying from the Apple Music Store.

Incorrect, you're never anonymous, just hidden better. They can always find the IP addresses of users one way or another. If they search for a song, and start downloading from you, netstats will show the connection linked to your IP.

but as evil said, chances are VERY slim. Out of MILLIONS and millions of ppl, (Over 3mil on kazaa lite alone,) only 300 or so have been cought/sued.
so yea.

And for the legal way... I hear napster offers a montly payment. Depending on how many you get, that would be better.

I like itunes cuz i can preview stuff. (helps me find songs that i wanted the name of. ) And arent they $1 /song and 10 for the album? Cuz in most cases the 10 for the album is a better deal, unless itunes isnt the one that offers that price. *shrug*

Right, as long as we don't share several hundred (or like I was doing, thousand) copyrighted files, we aren't going to get pestered. Besides, the RIAA is giving out warnings to people now before they sue.

At any rate, if I'm looking for a particular song I use K++, but if I'm just d/l'ing albums I use bittorrent and www.suprnova.org (or the bittorrent search client: www.torrentsearch.us )

I forgot all about Bit Torrent.

You can get pretty much anything off of Bit Torrent, with the right mirror anyway. Supernova is a great mirror page, they add upwards of 5-10 albums per day and they already have nearly 500 (an estimate) on the site. Bit Torrent couldn't be easier to use, once downloaded just go to the mirror site and download what you want, there is no GUI.
