In the age of digital sales how is it that people still keep pirating music which are already cheap?

I'd tell you how it's done, but if I recall correctly that's against the GS Terms of Use.In the age of digital sales how is it that people still keep pirating music which are already cheap?

I don't think it really matters how cheap it is, free is better than cheap. And the fact that a person can steal all the music he/she wants and the chances of anyone bothering them is slim to none, it makes it all the more enticing.
Because $0.79 to $0.99 for a song may sound cheap until you realize how quickly it adds up. People tend to not just pirate one song at a time, but dozens. I've even seen people pirate thousands of songs all in one sitting.In the age of digital sales how is it that people still keep pirating music which are already cheap?

I see.Most artists don't really care about piracy as long as people show up to their shows, it's a different story for the record companies.
Also, where can someone easily and legally download flac files?
Last I heard, music piracy has been slowing down. Some egg head study showed that people would rather stream music from sites like youtube or other similar websites than to actually own the songs themselves. When you can freely go online and listen to a song that you want to, it loosens the need to own it, because it's as if you already have the song, so long as you still have an internet connection ;)
