Any music you hear that is available somewhere, ANYWHERE for sale is illegal to own without having paid license. Meaning recording internet radio songs when you could BUY them at iTunes is an illegal act. P2P sharing of ANYTHING that carries a copyright (small c with a circle around it) is EXACTLY the same thing as walking into a Wal-Mart or other store , grabbing the music in question, putting it down your pants or under your shirt, and walking out with it.
Enforcement of these copyright laws, of course, is almost impossible, but they are starting to do it by noting the IP of the computer receiving the P2P, and trying to figure out where that computer is and who owns it. And fines so far have been as high as $10,000 USDollars. Same with movies.
You Tube, digg, any URL that allows their members to broadcast music or movies pay an organization called Sound Exchange a fee proportional to how much copyrighted stuff they stream out, so in a case like that, you're covered. Same with Satellite Radio.
It's all still a bit hazy because methods of making quality recordings of streams is a relatively new technology. So expect changing laws as the tech changes.
I say be a man and BUY it at a real outlet, so that the music community of the planet can keep creating and not have to quit and get a shoe sales job to feed families.
