Actually, I am a member of the Columbia House Music Club and buy music CDs all the time. Over 300 at last count.
But sometimes I hear a song on the radio or in a bar and like to check out more of their songs before I make a purchase. I also live an hour drive down the highway from the nearest CD store and sometimes I like to make up a mixed CD before I go out on the weekend and I don't have time to go shopping.
Am I a thief? I guess so. Do I feel guilty? No. I've paid full price for more than my fair share of CD's with only one or two good songs on them. So I'll continue to use software like this to sample music and I'll also continue to make purchases when I hear stuff I like.
