[B]i agree on that totally,

THANK YOU...FOR THAT

what you could just do though is not download the mp3 from file sharing networks but from a legal network or just buy the cd, both of those ways insure you that it's good quality.

PLEEEEASE! We all have our own reasons for downloading from file-sharing networks. I didn't intend, and don't WANT to get into a stupid argument about money rights, etc. I buy my share of CD's. Mostly I personally use file-sharing downloads when I don't want to, or can't afford to, buy a whole $20 CD for one song off of each one that may interest me...or that I like. Or to explore new music...new groups that I may end up BUYING CD's of. Am I replying to a RCIA "rights nut" or just...well...whatever. I feel "the rich"..are rich enough...and do OFTEN contribute financially in whatever way I can to new bands, new musicians just starting out with their new music out there...that I FIND on P2P FILE-SHARING networks. This was just a technical post, intended as good advice. Not obligatory, spurious, or derrogatory in nature. And originally anyway...NOT POLITICAL!

but i do agree that ppl must know what they do before doing it.

THANKS AGAIN...FOR THAT.
