downloading songs from youtubeIs downloading songs from youtube legal?

Hey, is downloading songs from youtube for personal use legal? is downloading itself legal?
I don't want to get sued.
It is illegal though many people do it.

It doesnt matter what website you download from. If you havent paid for it and downloading songs from youtubeit isnt free then it is not legal.
It IS legal to download music for home & personal use. In 1992, Congress passed the Audio Home Recording Act34 ("AHRA"), for more see the Article in the Duke University Law & Technology Review: http:/downloading songs from youtube/www.law.duke.edu/journals/dltr/articles/2002dltr0023.html


It is illegal. Unless you buy the songs, it's illegal. Just buy the songs from iTunes, Amazon, or get Rhapsody.
