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.

Actually, the main reason I really use iTunes is for my iPod. I do feel that I'm being ripped off but I just got so annoyed with Kazaa after getting all the really bad mp3's. I would love to use gnutella since the file sharing is almost untraceable but it's not exactly user friendly.
Mr. ZTAngel uses gnutella so I get a lot of stuff from him. The only problem is that he has to download an album at a time rather than a whole song.
Not sure why. The cool thing about it is that we've been able to watch a lot of movies in our own home while they're still in theatres.
