I doubt that MR would restrict a mere discussion of the mechanics of using software to legally download this kind of free information. If a moderator is listening in, perhaps they can clarify this. (If I am breaking the rules by this post, I will henceforth cease and desist.)
You may discuss software like Limewire that can be used to obtain both licensed and unlicensed media, i.e., give other members the benefit of the doubt. You may discuss how to use these programs (features, mechanics, performance, etc.).
You may
not ask for or post specific site names or URLs for sites whose
primary purpose is to illegally share music, and you may not ask for or give assistance when the request states that the goal is to obtain commercial material without paying for it. This applies to commercial software as well. If you are in doubt, contact us before posting. Please report threads or posts if you think they violate our policies.
