Music piracy has become headline news over the last few years and apart from being illegal, it also means that recording artists do not get the royalties they are entitled to. So why has music piracy become so common?
The answer lies in the fact that sites such as Itunes and Amazon place DRM (Digital Rights Management) on the music they sell; this effectively means that the music can only be played on one device. Gone are the days when you could take your cds round to your friend's house to listen to, or day I say, copy.
Limewire was founded in 2000 for the purpose of allowing the searching and sharing of material. The decision came after a four year court case between Limewire and the Recording Industry Association O America, the body that represents most of the world's largest record labels. In January 2011 the trial will continue to decide the amount of damages that will be awarded to the record companies in order to compensate them for the loss of revenue as a result of downloads from Limewire.
The industry has now set a precedent and more cases are bound to follow. As yet the courts (in the main) are not prosecuting individual users for downloading pirated copyrighted material. Having said that, in 2007 a woman was sued for $220,000 for downloading 1700 songs from Kaaza!
It has become very commonplace for people to download pirated music from web sites such as Limewire and Bearshare. It has become such a problem ften of a very low bit-rate. This means that the sound quality is not as good as it should be. But the biggest issue with downloading from these type of sites is that many of the files are infected with viruses. Download what you think is the latest song by Kanye West and you might end up with more than you bargained for, once you have downloaded it, it's too late. It can be a costly mistake and is best avoided!
However, there is a site, that through a clever system of licensing, allows you to purchase music for only 15 cents a song and also lets you have it without any DRM on it so you can listen to it on more than one device.
The site currently has music from over 250,000 artists and has a catalogue of over 3 million songs a figure that is growing every day. If you can't find the music you want here you're not going to find it anywhere! The site is arranged primarily in chart order, it lists the current Top 40s for the US, UK, Europe and World. In addition to this the whole site is easily searchable by artist or song title.
Free songs are given as a bonus just for registering so you haven't got anything to lose, it is effectively free to try. Multiple bonuses are awarded for topping up your credit so you'll actually get you music for less than 15 cents a song.
They also give you a free download manager to install on your pc, this makes the downloading of songs you have purchased extremely easy.
To summarise, why take the risk of downloading pirated music when you can get legal, high quality, virus-free music for only 15 cents a song. Visit the link below so see for yourself!
