You're basically paying the costs of the songs without any literature, cd, cd case, or anything even though those are pennies on the dollar.
They've tried to go after file sharing programs and each time a new one pops up. Kazaa lite isn't listed on google unless you click on the statement at the bottom from google itself saying why it wasn't listed. Then you can get it off there.
There are other programs like gnutella, emule/edonkey and soulquest that are similar. Even better is bittorrent.
These companies are ripping you off. Rip back. Their lawsuits have had no impact on sharing. Napster won't stay in business too long. ITunes stays in business because of apple and the ipod. Heck go to the store and turn pepsi bottle at a 25 degree angle and you can get the code for a free song off the bottle - or at least know which bottles have the songs.
On my powerbook I use acquisition and poisoned which search every single file sharing network and use bittorrents for larger files.
