You still wouldn't be allowed to do that because you do not have the rights to redistribue the music. At just $1 a song that you can purchase from itunes or a similar music store just buy the music instead of illegally downloading it, doing so could save you alot of trouble in the future.
QUOTE(Danieluchis @ Oct 14 2005, 02:01 PM) i wonder if it's illegal in mexico too... so this mean that Ares is illegal too.. hmm what happens to teens that doens't have a credit card and doesn't want to waste 15-20 dlls on a record for only one song like me u,u it means that im all sc.....d ¬¬?  Well, downloading in almost every single country is still ILLEGAL, including Mexico. The thing is that in this country these kind of topics are not yet relevant for congress. I mean, countries who are more concerned about their own poverty... how could we (or our goverments) be concerned about mp3 files sharing at all? Well, this is such an interesting topic, but think about it: how many people in Mexico owns a PC? c'mmon, salaries are still not good enough to afford buying a PC.... Cheers!!! 
QUOTE(shigajet @ Oct 14 2005, 03:47 PM) I agree that Limewire is one of the few reliable options left for downloading music. If you want to buy a song for 99 cents, that's alright as well, and you'll probably keep the record companies satisfied. Why is Lime Wire legal, isn't it the same as any other p2p programe?
but what about winamp music.you cannot download it but you can save it with some recording softwares.Is that ilegall?
limewire, lol
did you know that you can use the free virsion to download the version you have to pay with? QUOTE(cragllo @ Oct 14 2005, 11:24 PM) Downloading music off of th internet (be it sites, torrents or P2P file sharing) is illigal. Because you are NOT paying royalties to the artists. Sinse this all started it has been illigal, the BPI (british phonographic industry) are finding all the major UPLOADERS (people who share alot of files) and the RIAA (Recording Industry of America Accosiation) have already targeted WinMX (shut down their main network, private ones still available) and are taking actin against eDonkey. Some people say Limewire Pro is legal, this is NOT the case. Ive dont alot of research and keep up-to-date with all this, dont ask why. It's illegal in most country's but not all . Here in Canada downloading music is 100% legal but as you said most country's have very strict rule's of this sort of thing. But again there is country's that any pirated software is 100% legal to share.
Yes, programs such as Limewire (P2P) are illegal. You can pay for music downloads using Napster (about 60p a track). If you were to buy tracks then broadcast them on an internet radio station / play them on a website, then that would become illegal. If your intent of downloading the tracks was to put them on a radio/on a site, you would have to get permission from the record company as they are copyright.
It's legal here wher I live, as long as you don't let others download the music off you.
 But I very rarely download songs. Several artists offer fre legal downloads on their official sites so you may be in luck and find some songs your looking for.
limewire is as illegal as any other p2p program, like kazaa or napster (which is now legal because you have to pay). Any p2p program, whether pay or not (such as Limewire Pro, as cragllo said) is illegal. The difference is if you pay for the songs you download or not. and it depends on what you download. If a private band gives their music out for free, you are probably allowed to download it. If it's a band like Green Day, it's illegal. The conceptions on if you pay for the program, it is legal, if not it's illegal, is not the case.
