Pdf + Mp3 for free of course is the best way if you can find them, that's how I got mine. Yes, the five-finger discount is always cheaper than buying retail. I agree with payaso here - it's sad that the musicians and wanna-be musicians and music lovers who frequent this forum condone pirating music, hurting other musicians for their own gain. We've all heard all the excuses: (whine whine) it's too expensive, it's not sold in stores, I can't find it anywhere else, everyone else does it, if it were illegal the website would have been shut down, I'm just a student I can't afford it, the music industry is behind the times and not responsive to what the consumer needs, only the guy who posted it is doing something wrong not me or the website that hosts it, etc etc. Dress it up however you like to make yourself feel comfortable, but it's still stealing. If you're going to steal at least have some integrity and admit it. As soon as I saw payaso's comment I knew that inevitably everyone would jump on him with their rationalizations and justifications in defense of stealing. So it begins. quote:
So far I can't see any encouragement towards that. You really see no encouragement here? Q: Where can I get this copyrighted materiel? A: (Sr. Martins) You can download it for free. A: (flyhere) You can download it for free. So you were simply making an observation that it was available to download for free, as an alternative to the previous posts saying it was expensive, but in no way did that serve as a suggestion to actually download it without paying for it? In no way did it suggest that this practice was acceptable and preferred? quote:
In USA ... Anything for learning and non-commercial intention can be downloaded for free. Simply not true. Why ever pay for a college textbook if that's the case? (Why even publish a college textbook if nobody has to pay for it?) "Fair use" of copyrighted material does not extend to making a complete copy of the book and CD and sharing it with everyone else in the world.
