Downloading music is a phenomena which has gown ever since its inception and is sure to continue growing with time. No matter how many objections might be raised against it, it is something that is never going to die out. And of course, it makes all practical sense. I prefer to look at it as my right to choice. Why should I buy an entire CD for just one or few of my favorite songs?

Don't I have the right to posses the songs/ music of my choice and not what the recording company chooses to offer in a collection? Don't I have the right of having my own collection on my terms?

Anybody who has a computer, laptop, mp3 player or iPod would understand what I'm saying. There is nothing like getting to select your favorites and listening or watching only the stuff which you want to. Yes, over time, preferences change, choices change, favorites change! And this gives me one more reason to have the flexibility to be able to download and update my collection with time. To delete what i don't want and add new listings.

Do not get me wrong. I am not against CDs or albums. After all they are the original work of artists, with all legality and stuff... they are great to carry and has its own charm of possessing one. Hard core fans would want the original CDs at any cost. Music lovers take pride in their collection. People please do go ahead and buy the albums.. I myself posses a huge CD bank!

The only thing is that I am also in favor of downloading. I mean, I believe it is a matter of personal choice. The present generation prefers to make his own rules, do what he feels is correct and not just blindly take in whatever they are offered.

They think, they question and are ready to do what they feel is practical. That explains the reason why millions and millions of youngsters like me are download freaks! Simply because its practical.

It makes sense... It makes perfect sense to me to get unlimited options from music to movies to TV shows and sports event, for downloading instantly anytime of the day at super speed. It makes total sense for me to have the right to choose from a wide range of sites offering downloads. And it also makes sense to me to choose the one I feel comfortable with, whether or not it is in the top listings or not.

And even if I have to pay for a nominal fee for it, I would not mind that! As long as I get what I want - instant download, a huge collection to choose from and no compromising, no restrictions on size, bandwidth or content.
