here is an easier way of downloading music:
go to Google, type in whatever song or album you're looking for and put a space at the end, then type "site:mediafire.com" and press enter. If your request isn't too obscure, a list of links should appear. I have found that the best links to click on are ZIP files, but if you have the ability to use RAR files, those are good too.
This is a virus free way of downloading music and you will never get an angry letter from a record company or internet service provider saying STOP DOING THIS!
p.s. if mediafire doesn't work, try rapidshare or megaupload.here is an easier way of downloading music:

A study has found that downloaders like the already popular copyrighted music for acquiring without permission the most. Shocking?? I would say not, but it does tell us that the unsigned bands and talent are not benefiting from sharing online.
According to this article however, there is a new brand of 'pirate' that tracks the new and the unsigned. A music tracker with over 100,000 users found the most popular was a compilation album of unsigned artists.
Rob Costlow, one of the early adopters of the 'Jamendo' told TorrentFreak that thanks to this free music model, he is able to make a living off his passion.

Now we all knew it was gonna be a pretty substantial figure for the amount of music downloaded illegally, but the figure estimated by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) has literally just blown my socks off.
They claim that a whopping 95% of all online music that's downloaded, is illegal, meaning that artists and labels are missing out on a whole heap of cash.
Despite the IFPI's shocking statistics that worldwide music market revenues shrank by 7% in 2008, they do report that there has been a '20% rise since last year with downloads now accounting for a fifth of all recorded music sales.'
Unfortunately, 'Lollipop' by Lil' Wayne was last year's most illegally downloaded track. I thought out of that 95%, there'd be a few with some taste...Now we all knew it was gonna be a pretty substantial figure for the amount of music... more
