# I wondered about that too...
Dammit. Before school started I had never heard of the Quo. Now I find myself with a subtle urge to buy one of their albums. I'd have to get it online, though, and it would probably be expensive to ship from UK...

# you could probably get a sample from a p2p client
...only with the intent to buy it afterwards, of course

# Is that a legal option?
I'm such a straight-lace. I don't download any music or movies illegally. My friends think I'm a prude. I'm a writer, though, so copyrights are important to me.
EDIT: Although I do sometimes use copyrighted images in paint.

# I think it's fine
you only get in trouble really for supplying it to others.

I think it's ok morally too, to give music a nice listening to before you buy it, how else are you supposed to know if you like it or not?

# They sound pretty cool.
I heard some of their stuff on the "Backslash Boy" movie on some site.
I like classic rock. I *heart* Heart!

# hehehe :)
I don't know what sort of label they're on, but you might be able to get some mp3s off the internet

# so
if i steal music from the local cd shop, they should get busted for distributing "free" music?
(I helped save b3ta! Frumbert has no sig, Sun 9 May 2004, 7:44, archived)
# I wasn't arguing the logic of it
just the fact that they're only suing people who distribute the music.

# But they're trying to sell it.
Downloading sites like kazaa aren't.
