Downloading Music

This article pretty much summarizes the terms of illegal music downloading, and what copyright laws allow. For example; you can make a copy of a CD you bought, and use to for your own purposes legally, but you can not distribute it to other people. A major reason for copyright law, of course; is loss in revenue. The artists of the music you're stealing, want money for their work, stealing their music is almost the same as just stealing something from the store. It doesn't have to be just about music though, people can steal movies, books, etc. Yet can get in trouble by the law, and have to pay a fine for stealing any of them.
