My main reason for downloading music is because I don't want to buy the whole album. Why pay $15 for an album when I can download 2 songs for free? Like Stan said, the artists need to make an album of all good songs instead of just a few good songs. I can listen to an entire Beatles album and think every song is great but I could never do the same with a Metallica album (I use Metallica since they're so against downloading).
The music industry needs to go with the new technology instead of trying to fight against it. It will only be an uphill, losing battle if they keep suing people. From the very beginning of when downloading music started to become popular, they should have capitalized on it instead of fought against it. They should have provided people with good quality downloads for a small price (maybe 50 cents a download). Over the years, the quality of the downloads has improved and people have been getting free music and movies for so long that they'd never fork over the cash an mp3. The RIA has shot themselves in the foot.
