'Nearly 100 per cent of music fans copy music illegally'

Poll reveals fans' downloading and copying habits

I completely agree with ed2005.I mainly download torrent files of albums and records that i can't find anywhere to BUY. Boards Of Canada's Peel Sessions for example. Been looking to PAY MONEY for it for ages and just couldn't find it anywhere so the obvious option from there is to download it illegally. I only wanted to hear the music. It's not as if we're downloading out of spite towards the musicians; quite the opposite. I don't think this argument will ever be settled and to think that it will just because the government puts in internet security of some sort is silly.
