    personally I'd have to say I'm against this. There are a lot of good sites
    to pay for downloads.
    Hopefully in time a lot of the smaller labels will start offering downloads
    for a small fee anyway.

    Don't get me wrong though, i'm not by any means getting on my moral high
    horse. I do think we should put our efforts into tracking down the vinyl
    though, with the odd cheeky download.

    If a database did go up however, i would be up for it if the MP3's were
    either shorter snippets or of lower quality. Then it would just be liking
    previewing it etc.
