Why is it illigal, should it be legal? give me you're thoughts.

i think downloading is a great way to spread your music especially for new music artists. a lot of the music i listen to are never played on the radio therefore i am forced to buy music or look for them on the internet.
i share music amongst my friends because i like the word of mouth and spreading the music artists i like. i think downloading free music is great!
