I agree with Don on this.
So if I go to Best Buys to get the Alanis cd, do I
only have to pay for it if I like the clerk and feel
he deserves my support?

The question is, is it a matter of ethics or a matter
of legality?
For myself, I'm

Okay, let's be honest. How many people really
purchase it later.
If you're talking about burning a copy from another
cd, that's perfectly legal. That would fall under the
same law that says its legal to make a tape of a song
or album for yourself or a friend, as long as no money
is made and as long as the copy is made from the
original.
Downloading a whole album off the net is a whole
nuther stack of pancakes.

Me too. That's why I will always prefer to buy it
than to download or copy it.

Is it really tough to know what's right, or just tough
to do what you know is right?
Just some thoughts...
