Downloading music
George:
I buy it mostly, but when I need something quickly then I youtube it usually.
Colinwarrior:
If I want just one song or want it in guaranteed good quality, I just buy it. But if I'm downloading bulk like whole albums, discographies or stuff I don't really care about, then I just torrent it. Use MicroTorrent (http://www.utorrent.com/ Yes, that's what it's called. The symbol is micro, not a 'u'. Named so because of the relatively small size and processing usage of the program)
Trilerium:
youtube song rippers and video converters are wayyyyyy too slow, this grooveshark down-loader can download an album in the time of one song from other sources

Wind_Arcus:
Nobody's suppose to get music for free.. but this site http://mp3skull.com/ is pretty good for any music your looking for. Can play it on the site to see if its what you want before you download
Nick:
I use AnyVideoConverter to rip single songs off of YouTube, and then just look for .zips or .rars of albums on Google.
