Did you just discover that you can get music without paying for it over itunes?

LOL The new Limewire?

Only idiots use stuff like that, my Dad started using Bearshare for his music and has discovered the social aspect of it that only lonely 40 Year Olds use and now he thinks he's epic because Bearshare Female Members keep talking to him and they are all in his Area - I've tried telling him they're robots but whatever.

See these Limewire/Bearshare/Frostwire things suck.

Yeah awful sounding video conversions for the true audiophile, right? I seriously giggle at people who source their music from YouTube. It's so cumbersome. Virtually every other option is easier, faster and offers higher quality audio.

Torrents leave everything in the dust if you want a serious, high quality music collection outside the novel idea of paying for the actual physical albums. Most people who diss them just haven't taken the five seconds it takes to figure out that the site link needs to be opened in a torrent tracker and that it is not the file itself.

Or the type of people who still see it at 0.0% downloaded after a minute or so and think to hell with it.

.

70% of my Music on my iPod is from YouTube and it sounds like it's from an Album.

And Downloading from that site takes me about 5 Seconds.

I can sound just as great. I dunno what you've been using.

No, it really cant. I know you think it can but it can't. The average bitrates, compression etc don't lie. Get a YouTube upload of a song, get the song on physical CD, and play them one after another on a proper pair of speakers.

I'm sure it sounds clean and alright, sure, but if you really listen the little nuances become abundant.

This all goes out the window of course if you're using some crummy iPOD earjacks or inbuilt laptop speakers as your benchmark.
