illegal, and I support it.

I downloaded music for a while, but now I am more likely to buy CDs.

Audiogalaxy definitely shaped my musical tastes. I'm not sure what I would be listening to without having used it, but I think that my musical tastes would be more narrow.

I don't like corporate control of culture. I don't want ClearChannel to decide what we should or should not hear, based on how much record labels pay them.

The law is too massive and too corrupt to be an arbiter of right and wrong, and it should not be an arbiter of right and wrong. When it is illegal to do activities that an unmanageably large portion of the population does, when the law has it's fingers in too many things to be enforced, I think that the law needs to be changed.
