The more important question would be "is it legal"?  If you are speaking of
going to one of the commercial download services, and purchasing copies of
Abba songs, then, yes it is legal, and it will be safe.

If you are speaking of using a program such as Kazaa (sp?) or Limewire to hook
up to an anonymous peer-to-peer network and get them for free, then it is
illegal, and probably not safe.  These programs are often portals to your
system for virii and spyware.

I've 'ripped' music off of my own purchased CDs and placed it onto my HD
often.

I don't think there would be anything particularly virulent in Abba music, but
then, I've never been a huge fan of theirs. :->
