 Re: Downloading Classical Music

Rhapsody gives you unlimited downloads for $15 a month - that's what I use. I've tried Napster, iTunes, Naxos, WarnerClassics, eMusic and I've found that Rhapsody has the largest collection of classical music. They have the entire Naxos library as well as great selections from most of the other major classical labels.


Regarding the debate about illegal downloads, keep this in mind:

Musicians/Composers receive NO royalties for downloaded music!!!!

We recently lost this one in court - according to US law, a piece of music that is downloaded is not afforded performance royalties. It's just like composing for film: composers get no royalties when the film is displayed in theaters (only in the US, not true in the rest of the world!!!).

So, downloading music illegally is illegal and wrong, but you're not actually doing any direct harm to the musicians, only iTunes/Rhapsody/whatever.
