Is MyTunes legal?In: Computers, Online Music |
Answer
From some research, I was able to get this answer:
Like the popular program Limewire, MyTunes uses a Peer to Peer (P2P) network to let you download files from other computers. MyTunes, as a program, is legal, since it does allow for legal transfers, such as somebody sending a friend a picture. However, as the name suggests, MyTunes is designed mainly for music transfers, which, as the website says, is illegal. In other words, the program is not illegal, but using it is.
See the question below "Is Limewire illegal?" Before you read this, however, I want to set this straight, as it is a subject surrounded with confusion. Limewire is NOT illegal, but sending any copyrighted material, such as a professional song or movie IS. Be sure that you are not confused by people who say that the program is illegal in and of itself.
