Downloading illegally has prompted me to buy much more music than I usually would have. However I haven't bought a bad album in ages as I can try before I buy. People who exclusively download illegally are the same type of people that would have just 'taped it' back in the 80's, the record companies weren't selling anything to those people then and they won't do now either.
