Yes, No and Maybe, depending on a lot more info.

Use the Forum search button and look up "illegal" to find out which answer might apply to your situation.

Default re: illegal

do u really think the feds are going to come to ur house to stop u downloading music? do u really think they are going to say to u ur not allowed to do that its against the law you have to buy the cds coz ur ripping artists off?

cmon...ur one person in how many hundreds of millions of ppl that download...and u think they're gonna come knocking on your door...

the answer is yes it is illegal to download them...but then u can also say no someone else has bought it to get it on here and they are just sharing the file with u...so in that sense its not really...guess it all depends on ur frame of mind and level of conscience...which obviously like the hundreds of millions of other ppl who download...i dont have... : )
