Legal downloads of music tripled in 2005. That’s only because it’s so damn difficult to find free tunes quickly. I, for one, have decided to use allofmp3.com for my downloading needs. Although it hasn’t been deemed ‘legal’ yet, it does the trick for me. Subscription sites and record industries need to get their acts together and come up with a business plan that actually makes sense. Forget this DRM nonsense. I’m sure they’d see their numbers increase even more.
