In all honesty ...

Hi,

It depends.

Sharing copyrighted material is not legal.

Sharing uncopyrighted material is legal.

So far the copyright police havn't shown up at anyone's house if they mistakenly shared copyrighted material.

The music industry is currently trying to target people who share large amounts of copyrighted material. That issue involves people's right to privacy and is still in the courts.
