Well, this is going a bit off-topic, but: 1. The record corporations love to redefine the language in their favor. For example, the links that come up suggest that people were punished for "illegally downloading" music, while in fact the only punishments that ever were handled by the court were for unauthorized sharing (i.e. uploading) music. 2. Downloading music for preview, in my opinion, is no different from checking a book (or a CD!) from the library or borrowing a book/disc from a friend. ( BTW, this "Tango&Beatles" album is such a hack job, I barely could stand listening it in the entirety before deleting. Obscure blogs and download sites is exactly where it belongs) 3. The original poster specifically stated that she could not find the song in question in the most popular online stores, so getting it online from for preview did not strip anybody from making a profit in selling it.
