Mmm, Graelwyn, I hate to say it...I'm sure plenty of people who go to WrongPlanet do download music illegally, and in their defense I'm sure plenty of those people also pay for other music as well, but, well...I'm not sure how the mods'll react to linking to music download sites. I'm not as against illegal downloading as some people (I think that in general scummy record lables make most of the money and that many artists are screwed over no matter how many CD's they sell)...I just wouldn't want anybody here to get in trouble.

I thought this was illegal.....?Is this site different?

The following is a good legal site with independent artists, most of the music there can be downloaded free
http://www.soundclick.com

I have downloaded a few which are nice

Oh. Okay. I was just making sure...

In that case, a site that I like is Project Playlist. It hunts down music files and lets you compile a playlist out of them, which can then be posted on sites like MySpace. While you can download the files via the URL's, the site does encourage you to support the artists by buying the CD. Not all of the links work, and oftentimes you'll have a favorite song that simply isn't online so you can't add it to your playlist, but ah well. My playlist is here, though it changes every so often. Again, I'm not sure it's all legal, but it's not quite like file sharing because the intention is not to provide pirates with download links (indeed, it discourages this in multiple ways), but rather to provide people the tools to make playlists for their web sites and profiles.

Another is Galbadia Hotel. This is game soundtrack heaven. One should note that many of these soundtracks can't be bought, so it's nice to have a resource for game music junkies like me.

You can always search for music at MySpace music to see if you like an artist, of course, too, which is totally legal. (Not all of the fan pages that let you download the mp3's are, but then again MySpace's sound quality isn't quite as good as CD quality, so sometimes that's just as well.)

I wouldn't link to any blatant piracy sites, but if this post is still offensive to people, then I could delete it.

I dont find your post desturbing,I was more insulted by the sarcastic yawning just because some people are concened about breaking the law.....yeah,laws protecting the rights of artists....yawn(very mature.)
