Has anyone used the legal version of kazaa that is $20 and if you have how is it, is it worth the money.

 

[smeegle]

No, you'll do better getting the legal version of Napster. Even though it says that is legal and even though you have to pay a fee, Kazaa is still up to its old wicked ways.

 

[bobbydrza]

but can I download software, movies, and games on Napster?

 

[smeegle]

No, its for music only. If you can find a site that you can legally download software and movies from, please let me know.

 

[bobbydrza]

what do you mean about kazaa being up to it's old wicked ways?

 

[smeegle]

Spy ware. I tried to use kazaa, legally, but was never able to download any music from it. They even had me download a different version of it. Still no luck. During my regular run of spybot I came across a number of baddies that were tracked directly back to kazaa. I uninstalled it and chalked the money lost to a bad experience. As time goes by you'll surely get responses from other members.

The $20 version of kazaa has nothing to do with legality. Supposedly, its for buying a spyware-free version of the software. No matter what software you buy, its still illegal to pirate music, movies, and games. Sorry.

I have seen ads for http://www.movielink.com

 

[bobbydrza]

Does anyone know of any file sharing program that let's you downlod music, movies, and software for a monthly fee and is legal?

 

[bobbydrza]

I just found another file sharing program used for Music, movies, software, and more at is this another illegal program

 

[brendandonhu]

If you aren't paying for the music/movies, its probably illegal.
http://movielink.com
http://itunes.com
Try those two
Theres also a few others for music, such as Napster 2.0 and MusicMatch.

 

[Holly3278]

I've heard that Napster 2.0 is the best software to download LEGAL music from. You have to pay a montly fee but I would say it is probably worth it. No experience with Napster 2.0 though.

 

[bobbydrza]

On Napster, can you burn your tracks without having to pay for it?

 

[Mr. PC Doc]

Kazaa is terrible. It has TONS of spyware, ad ware, and who knows WHAT else.

 

[smeegle]

To dude189, thanks for the great link. I've seen other links like this but they all required broadband connections.

To bobbydrza, once you legally download music from Napster you can burn it to a cd without having to pay an additional fee. I use Musicmatch to burn my cd's. Musicmatch allows you to legally download music from their site for a fee as well but their catalog is not as large as Napster.

 

[bobbydrza]

But I thought that they said that you had to pay 99 cents to burn each track or is there some way around that, and do you have to pay a fee for each track you download?

 

[brendandonhu]

A song costs about $1 at most of these stores, and each one has different rules for burning CDs, copying to MP3 players and such. Check each store's website, they should have an FAQ on it.

 

[smeegle]

It costs 99 cents for each track that you download or $9.95 per album. There is no legal way around that. The days of downloading "free" music are over. If you try to do it illegally you'll pay the consequences when you get caught. "Welcome to OZ."

 

[snooker]

Hi ... Have you look at wal-mart 88cents for a song
