all i will say on this matter is a few people have been prosicuted recently in the uk for using limewire and other file sharing programs,so it is really up to you,the fines have been large up to £3,000 and parents have had to pay where it has been children using file sharing,but i figure that with the record companies charging so much for cd's when they are cheep to make,they only have themselves to blame.KEEP SHARING
