Well, as I have stated in another post, I don't support the "illegal
sharing"/piracy of any kind of product. There are many wrong laws, and they
should of course be changed, but attacking and disrespecting the laws that
still protect people is not the best way.
One interesting story happened to me...
My ISP has as service that allows us to listen and download music legally for
free. I used to use that for listening in the car and all.... BUt one day I
asked the ISP "if I am accused of illegal downloading a music, how do I prove
it was downloaded through your legal service?"
The person who was answering was a total idiot and said "you don't need to,
as you can read in our service terms, our musics have no copyright!" -.- -.-
-.-
IDIOT! Of course a music from Linkin Park or LotR Soundtrack has copyright! I
just need a recipe or somehting that proves I downloaded the mp3 file through
your service!
Well, they coulnd't help me, the ISP really doesn't know shit about what they
are doing and I gave up. Also, I realised that by using their service, I was
allowing them to know exactly what musics I like and don't. So I stopped
using it.
Now usually in the car I just turn the radio on, lol.
However, to answer your question, I usually use VEVO youtube channels to
listen to music (they are uploaded by the copyrights holders) and also I
sometimes go and listen to amateur bands or new artists who put their music
on their websites for free, trying to promote themselves.
I don't really listen to a lot of music, to be honest, so I can't really help
a lot.... But you have this website
http://freemusicarchive.org/
it actually has a lot of musical content, and they are very respectful of
copyrights, they have a lot of CC music and they work with radio stations and
all.... Cool stuff. There were others but I forgot their names :S
Anyway, nowadays, you can buy any music you want for a few cents online, and
amazon actually offers some free legal downloads for people. It's all a
matter of whether you want just a free download or something more.
