I will never use legal music download sites of the type that run now. Not if I had infinite money. The reason? The sites actually have INFERIOR quality content to music that can be gotten for free off P2P. And it's copy protected as well.
There are two options people: get a copy-protected WMA or AAC track at 128kbps which will only play in a small subset of portable and standalone players (that support the DRM or audio format) or get a 192kbps MP3 that has no copy protection (so I can copy it to as many computers in my house as I want) and will play in almost any player. Which one would you choose?
