| LEGAL DOWNLOADS |

| Whether or not music
file sharing programs are legal, the actual act of sharing the file is
NOT legal. Record companies are proving this in the courts every day as
they sue average people for downloading music. To be clear, paying to
join a file sharing program to download
unlimited music, none of that payment goes to the artist or
musician.
The only way to make sure you legally
downloading mp3’s is to make sure you are on a truly legal music
download site. Even
if you did buy the CD, you do not have the right to make a copy of it
(or create an Mp3 of it) for the purpose of sharing it with someone
else. We only
feature legal mp3 download sites in our reviews and links. Beware of
other sites that imply they offer legal music downloads,
but are really only file sharing networks.
ONLY LEGAL
MUSIC
You will notice that we feature the word legitimate in our heading.
Many sites say they are legal but are not, therefore we want to stress
that we are a legitimate mp3 music download
site. All the music links featured on this site are legal. It's a way
for us to say that our featured sites are truly legal, without
associating ourselves with non-legal file sharing networks who imply
they're legal. Actually, the programs are legal but the act of music downloading
is illegal if you're not using a legitmate site as listed on this page.
If you have questions, please contact
us.

With
iTunes you can buy entire albums or single tracks, but their biggest
downfall is that their software only allows a 30 second preview of
songs. The upside is that you pay nothing to preview music, only when
it's time to purchase and download,
unlike some music downloading programs that require a monthly
membership. However, if you download a lot of songs, iTunes "pay as you
download" method will give you fewer songs for your money than getting
unlimited downloads from programs such as Napster
with a monthly subscription fee.
