I remember once upon a time you could get anything for free from the internet no matter how stupid it was aslong as it was digital but that time has passed iv spent hours looking for things to come to sites that claim to give a free download but to get it i have to pay to register to their site, seriously this has happened to me for music, ebooks all sorts things i remember not 2years ago i was getting for free.
When did the internet fail
(i dont torrent games nor full albums fyi just 1 song off an album if i like i buy the album can provide photo of my cd collection to prove)
and the ebook im refering to is some gold making guide for wow anyone who knows me knows iv quite rich but im greedy i wanna make more but dont see why i should pay £23 for some pdf for a game which nearly cheaper then that in a budle offer

I'm having difficulties finding easy utility programs for free too (take for example video converters). But there's still enough 'free' stuff. I had to chuckle when I read the part about downloading just 1 song and then buying the CD though.

I never have real difficulty, I just have to look real hard. I remember when I first got my laptop, I had to get a cd-key for my anti virus and microsoft office, it took me literally like an hour of sorting through threads searching warez forums, etc, but it's all worth it in the end

You can still get EVERYTHING you want for free.
you just have to know where to find it.
and to find it, you would have to know where it is.
only after you knowing can you find it. care to enhance this reply dont make much sense (no links forbidden by rules) woutR wrote: I'm having difficulties finding easy utility programs for free too (take for example video converters).

I just wanted something freeware so I don't have to go through the work of cd key gens and what not. and @wong, I wasn't implying you didn't buy the CDs, I just thought it was funny.

Actually, you have failed. There are more people than you think who are related to the music and entertainment industry. Everytime you illegally download something, they are losing their livelihoods and paychecks. You should be ashamed of yourself. Its disgusting how you're actually blaming the internet for your misery. What a loser.

Ask some buddies if they have a song. Use a media converter online. Rip a cd. Stop moaning about it and embarassing yourself.

well you fail big time here if i rip the cd off a mate im not buying it at all and geez thats doing these people a whole lot of help
but non the less who are you? no one!! i dont care what you say, il never care what you say, so dont try and get 1 over on me unless its really really good cus these little attempts are not worth the bits your replying on. Then why post a thread at all? If I'm a nobody, the person above me and below me are nobody either. Why post if you disregard peoples' answers at all? You're asking for everything by posting on a forum - your mom might shower praise on you, but the rest of us might not care. You're a halfwitted tard, whining because the law stands in your way of stealing something. Its even funnier because you dont realize what an ignorant ass you're making yourself, everytime you post. Seriously, look around you. No sane person makes a thread bitching about how the whole world is against him simply because he can't find free downloads. Its reaaaally embarassing. But I guess you dont realize that. Truckloads of fail, kiddo.
