In the US BRAND new realses at target can go down to 7 dollars! We cant control every countries prices on music, but their is no way to justify stealing. I know your saying it isnt fair, but the price of gas used to be totally unfair. And you didnt see people invading gas stations and stealing gas. The economy sucks whch also has to do with it, but like I said , their is no way to justify breaking the law.

Okay, let's see...the only super store in my area is a Wal-Mart. What do they sell? Edited albums. No thanks. And, even though albums are going down in price online, to an extent, they're still not at the point where I can justify buying them without feeling worried that that is money wasted that could have been used to help pay the bills every month.
Yeah, I understand Bobby's argument, that music is a privilege. Fine, what about LIVING? What about staying alive? I guess THAT is a privilege too now, right? But oh, of course, we don't consider the fact that *some* people just can't afford to buy music, even if it is cheaper than it used to be.
What you need to understand is that nobody is questioning the idea that downloading music for free is illegal, unless it's intended to be free, of course, but yet, you continue your crusade against the evil downloaders, as if this is the Salem Witch Trials 2: Electric Boogaloo. Seriously, we've heard it so many times before that it has become ingrained in our minds. There's no need to bash it into our skulls again.
