most of the time its because we don't have the authorization from the label/artist

Be happy with what you get. Without these people you wouldn't even know about the existence of these songs. Posting full length songs is illigal and you're only stabbing the artist in his back.

In some cases thats all that's been made available such as Nate Dogg's Dolla Dolla Bill.  In other's.. some cat's hold out cuz maybe it makes them feel like they have one up on others.. or maybe a false since of power or something cuz they got people gettin at em beggin!  I don't know..

I’ve always been down for sharing shit if I got it like most others, especially if it’s hot but most of us always try to emphasize supporting.  

In some cases dudes is just honestly excited cuz some shit is hot, and they just cant keep it to themselves cuz they fiendin for some feedback.  They wanna share the emotion more so then the track.  (maybe they promised not to give it out and we've all been there before, but damn its just too hot to keep all bottled up.. feel..?)  Does that make the person bad?  Maybe not.. I dont know..

Dont hate em, just keep mashin.  Theres plenty of good music to be shared, supported and purchased.

Dont just settle for a simple reason and start hatin on someone for not giving out a track.  There could be many legitimate reasons so again, just say thank you for what you ended up getting and keep mashin.

I agree with this, but there's nothing that pisses me more off than when a artist leeches a snippet from a upcoming album, and the album gets delayed 100 times, or it might not end up on the album at all.
That should be illegal.

man i was watching an episode of south park two weeks ago (i think) and it was right...

it had a part with the RIAA arresting the kids because they downloaded music, the agent then went around hollywood showing the kids what they had done.

first it showed Slash sitting in this big back yard of a mansion crying...they asked him why he was crying and the man said it was cause people downloaded his music, he's not able to afford his olympic size swimming pool

then it showed britney spears getting on a plane sad. the kids asked why she sad, the man replied that because of downloading, britney spears sould no longer afford a big private jet, she had to downsize and get a smaller jet without a bar in it.

artists are some greedy bastards. if they really cared about thier music, they'd get after the music stores that sell their cd's for $20.00. when cd's were 12.99 i'd buy them all the time, but fuck that now. i'm gonna pay $20.00 for 3 songs that i like. i can buy a DVD of a movie i want for that much and get way more use from it.

aside from that, i know there's laws of sharing unauthorized music...but that shouldn't stop people from sharing one or two songs.....doesn't stop any of us from downloading and keeping that paris hilton sex tape if judges rule in her favor.

and being thankful we just got a snippet? please, are you thankful when you see a commercial for a movie or a videogame? fuck no, you want that shit
