I used to download all kinds of MUSIC, But now that people are getting arrested for doing so, I am a little paranoid about downloading music on the Internet. But I miss it sooo much. Any legal programs out there for downloading MP-3s ? well you can get napster to go or zune pass or something for only $15 a month per service and get free downloads or if you DONT MIND the music just streaming the there is a $13 napster thing too I don't know but I think you can purchase music on Itunes as well.lol but then you have to pay 99 cents per song Maybe a proxy? I'm no expert though, but I think good, tested anonymous proxies hide your IP and will save you any trouble.

I welcome comments on proxies!

Or, just buy the music! 99 cents is pretty good for a track that would be about $1.80 on a CD...

Good anonymous proxies hide your real IP address no matter what you're using to surf/download, surely?

Unfortunately, we don't talk about that kind of stuff here.

Just because you are using a proxy, does not mean you are not traceable. You are still assigned an IP, and I will see that IP in my logs. You do something, illegal on a site, law enforcement will just get a court order for the IP trace, the Proxy will be required to give up the IP that was assigned that particular Proxy IP at that time, and they will continue to trace you to your ISP and get your information from them. Most often it's only a three step process. The proxy, your ISP, and then you.

There is no such thing as anonymous on the Internet. One can have an illusion of anonymity, but one is never TRULY anonymous. You can make it extremely difficult to trace you, but not impossible.

I have to concur that anonimity on the internet pretty much doesn't exist.



As for music...Hype Machine is a favorite site of mine and it's about 98% legal.  But if you're not into the indie scene, you may have trouble finding something you like.
