use limewire, its free, most of the songs are legit/good quality, easy to use. if you wanna download full albumbs then use torrents, but you'll need something like utorrent to download them, (the torrents).
Little bit of show, little bit of go.

I'm using an older version of frostwire, I like it, but not interested in the newer version
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

Lime wire is full of viruses, fake songs, spyware, adaware, trojans, etc.
I second 4shared.com and I also recommend beemp3.com. as well there is a rapidshare search, forgot the url out there , but its pretty impressive, no need to resort to Bit Torrents for me.

Agreed. :angry:
Everytime my computers had problems, it was because the kids went on Limewire. I have banned Limewire from the household computers and threatened loss of computer privlidges.

These days you can download DRM-free music from iTunes. Not all songs, but a fair number.
Your other choices are pretty much all non-legal options.
HMV and a few other music sites provide purchase-per-track/album options as well.
