Limewire f**ked up my computer, so I sticking with Itunes. Paying for my music is the best decision or no computer.

Yes, all the time. If I decide I enjoy most of the music on an album, I'll buy it. And I only buy from iTunes when I can't find a good one on Limewire or whatever. My sister's got like $30 on iTunes for her birthday, but I think we've only used like $3.

All the time.

I use an exploit on Google to do it. I doubt I'm allowed to post it.

Yeah. If I can't find it (loliusefrostwire), I rip the audio off of youtube videos. I've found that method pretty effective, it's just way more time consuming.

^ I did that for a little while, but the quality is usually wayyy crappier.

Oh yeah, I don't usually buy off iTunes because my Zune doesn't support the file type. Which is stupid.

Oh, I use this website that rips it off exactly how it sounds so it's pretty high quality (unless the quality sucked to begin with).

I didn't know Zune doesn't support iTunes file. D: ASDADJHSGRAWR. That means my iTunes giftcard isn't really helpful then. ):

I only buy my music if I really love the album, and the only way I'll know if I love it is if I download it. So I pretty much illegally download all my music except for the rare few.

I only download if it's one or two songs. Otherwise I buy the CD, especially since I listen to a lot of smaller bands. They need the support and sales.

Yeah whenever files aren't compatible, just Google a file converter. They're usually free and easy to come by.

I've had some bad experiences with converters. I tried converting a video file into something Zune-compatible once, and after a long time of loading, it didn't work. Or, it did work, but the quality was complete shit.

That was a wild post.

Also: I think it would fit better in technology.
