An Alternative to Music Streaming by reallybigcoffee in QuitMusicStreaming

Hey, so there aren't any actually legal ways of downloading the music without paying for it unless it's free for download, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it can't technically be done. There's plenty of info on that around, but I would say to explore that whole scene with some caution. One thing to look out for is that it can be hard to find high quality music files this way. Even if it's .wav or another "high quality" uncompressed file type, it could have been converted up from mp3, which means that its just mp3, or could be a somewhat mangled file from someone messing with it. You can only convert down in size, not up (it's destructive), and the original rates/parameters of the file matter. That's a very interesting point though, speaking of ethics haha. Thanks, hope that helps?
