I do this a lot because like you, I don't have the money. Most of the bands I listen to don't even care if you illegally download their songs. You gotta remember that money doesn't grow on trees and a lot of people are lucky just to have internet and a computer. I don't think it's wrong as long as you are providing the artist with support for their music, especially if it's a song that has saved your life or simply helped you through a rough time. It's getting so now that CDs are losing popularity because everyone uses an MP3 player/iPod/iPhone whatever.
For me, I don't have a job. Both me and my dad only get so much from SSI. Plus he gets a 200 dollar insurance check. All of those goes toward things we need. You would think it's a lot of money, if you think about it... but it's not. It doesn't even last us a month before we are scraping the bottom of the barrel. I spend my money on things that entertain me my short attention span. It takes a lot to remedy my attention span, even games.
I do agree with a lot of what is said. Sometimes the cost of CDs or songs, especially on itunes, is a lot of money. I've seen their prices for certain things. It can be costly even with a bunch of itunes cards just to get enough to buy two CDs, if not one. It depends on the rate of popularity.
