Same goes for downloading .mp3 files from Usenet--no way to track them but
just as illegal.
I finally decided to "go legal" and signed up with MusicNow for $9.95/month
and 79 cents per "portable download". Only problem is that it only supports
Windows Media Player. I'm eagerly anticipating the iTunes service becoming
available soon for PC users (although next spring I plan on replacing the
Thinkpad with an iBook so that might become irrelevant).
