O_o Please tell me the diffrence between a HD-Download and a HD-Stream? Chances are, if you don't find a HD-Stream you also won't find a HD-Download. Or then you wait a little until the "famous" streaming sites have the HD-Stream, which happens like right after the HD-DL is avalaible somewhere? :p. Well, maybe i'm a little "early" in calling downloads "old". But I doubt we will download much in 5 years from now.. | ||

Why download music for free to then buy it..... 3. LimeWire is so unsafe its untrue, so much Spyware you get from just one download Also i think the best way to combat "piracy" is just to make Spotify/Grooveshark more aware to the internet i mean you can listen to any song any time on spotify and grooveshark for so little a month or just use it for free but your not downloading it or taking it away from your computer which is fine imo. It should (and kinda does) work the same way with Films, going onto say lovefilm.com streaming the latest films or dvds to your computer for minimal fee per month (online blockbuster ftw) Piracy will always happen, because of how easy it is, there is probably a number of people if they know about the websites such as spotify/lovefilm/grooveshark who would use them to stream moveis and listen to songs instead of illegally downloading them because its easy. Piracy will always happen until you start to address the problems. Who really wants to pay £10/$10/10Euros for a Cinema ticket after all t.t or £10/$10/10Euros for a CD...its crazy, you can buy a pack of 50Burnable CDs for £10/$10/10Euros at computer fairs! does LimeWire still exist? my LimeWire uninstalled itself and took 30~ gigs of music with it when they initially got hit with that ridiculous 75 trillion or whatever lawsuit | ||

Streaming Music = Have you listened to some Internet Radio? No quality issues there. Streaming Video/Music = Youtube (and tons others). No quality issues there. WHY do you want or feel it's needed to download stuff? The only reason that is left, is that it is accesible when offline. But i doubt we will be offline in any even a little populated area in the near future. | ||

Yes, you need Internet... And? I doubt this will be a problem, except in some very rural areas, in the future. It is a problem, especially in my campus, the evening, there is so much people on it that streaming is a pain in the ass. Anyway, if you care about your music, you will not stream it. Because the quality is much worse. | ||

But i doubt we will be offline in any even a little populated area in the near future. Eh, there are quality issues. There are connectivity issues. There are compability issues with streaming programs and devices/os. There are cost and cap issues (download once, play how many times you want vs stream over and over. If you have offline mode then that's just another way of downloading it...). That's just a few reasons that took my a few seconds to think of... | ||

But i doubt we will be offline in any even a little populated area in the near future. Because streaming music to my ipod / smartphone is not viable with our horrible data deals when i'm on the road? And because I don't care for the latest "make up tips" from youtube and download series and movies 1080p only?
