I'm not even sure you can legally make a mix tape recorded from the radio. Nevermind the people who rip CDs and post the audio in YouTube without the artists knowledge or consent.
Unless you are being sarcastic. In which case, you are not making that clear. Nor is it mildly humourous.
Think of all the musicians like Jugz69 and Marinara you are putting out of work! Will someone please think of the retired musicians! I mean children.Last edited by Littlemark; 04-24-2021 at 04:36 PM. Reason: Grammar

Do you have any idea how many babies were made to this music? When that first guy starts singing, the clothes start coming off.

I simply refuted the post from the individual who stated its impossible to download something from YouTube. Now apologize for your ignorance too!

There are legal download services. Simply because you’re not aware of them is not a valid argument.

But any music that I truly like I buy. I make sure I pay. If you don't, you are a thief. I'm not apologizing, I directly call you a thief.

It's entirely possible. Someone with whom I went to music school with had never heard the Beatles. They were vaguely aware they were a music group.
I find that more baffling.

I was not claiming any high ground about it, merely questioning the legality and correcting your terminology.
I am not sure why you are getting defensive. But you should probably not assume that I am not aware of legal means to download music, or films, or books. But I am certainly but aware of ALL of them.Last edited by Littlemark; 04-24-2021 at 05:35 PM.
