just stumbled to an awesome page named deezer.com.
the quality is fine (i think 192kbit/s variable bitrate) and they've nearly everything!
you can even download their music and save it to your disk
by using the firefox extension "DownloadHelper".

and it's legal, they're payin' for every song they're playing!

Most likely it is, theres no way someone would have something like this without virus, but hey, its still good, all you have to do is know how big a virus and a song could be. For example, one song is 9000. A virus is 12. Big difference, espically if you know the song. So you just dont dl it. Anyways, i currently use Limewire, its quite good, Theres no virus really if you put it to audio and i love it.

http://www.limewire.com/download/

get basic, after that, when you have limewire, search for limewire pro, download the zip, and install, there you go, now you have Pro, which they wanted you to pay for. ^^ Its a very nice and easy program so ya.

afaik limewire is released under gpl... so you're free to share it ;)
they're just gettin' payed for the service and traffic etc...
there are tons of pages sharing it: (for example http://limewirepro.at.tt/)
anyway, deezer is virus free and legal, they're paying for every sound you're hearing!!
and downloading copyrighted songs using limewire is illegal!
so i really like deezer ;)

Wish I was still in Canada for the music downloads. Its perfectly legal there. A small portion of the taxes on cd´s goes to artists to pay for potential music copying.

in germany it's nearly the same... they're getting taxes... AND it's illegal! :(
but in germany it's legal to give copys of music you bought to your friends,
so this is quite fair ;)
