I wondered if anybody knows what the exact law is because many people seem to be confused. There is a common view that its perfectly legal to download MP3 files but its not legal to share them. I persoanly think it must be illegal download copyrighted material because you are downloading the waveform and surely when an artist copyrights work they are copyrighting both the interlectual property and the physical medium. This is not a discussion about what is what or wrong or wether these laws can be enforced, I just simply want to know if anybody knows the law so I can settle an argument on another forum were people seem to think downloading MP3s is legal and the law can't touch them unless they have huge file sharing servers. Thanks.
