Obtaining music... legally. Is there such a thing?

But seriously, how'd you legally get music before the internet? Buy it you say? Do that.

edit

I heard itunes its pretty bad now. I love internet radio. Pandora Radio - Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music is awesome.

Why are you wanting to get it in a legit way anyway? With all the "free ways" that are out there, just hit those up.

its fine for now
but colleges are cracking down on file sharing and torrent programs.

a lot of schools [including the one im attending] has a one strike policy about those programs accessing the network.

My school hands out $2,000 fines to students caught downloading music illegally.

I have plenty sense, thanks. What makes you think otherwise? Downloaded music is still too expensive, IMO. Whats the point if a downloaded album costs the same as, or only slightly less than, the CD, as is the case now? Just buy the CD. CDs comes with artwork, no crazy restrictive DRM, and you have a physical product that you can do with as you please, that you'll be able to listen to it in 100 years time. If your hard drive with all your downloaded music explodes, then what?

I'll stick with CDs, thanks.
