Jahn, it may be _more_ moral to audition the CD, or check it out from the library, or listen to the radio, but I don't think it's _un_moral to audition a CD off filesharing, on the basis that if you didn't audition the music you wouldn't have brought it and thus the artist doesn't get paid either way. (Granted, I tend to only download music which I'm going to buy anyway, so...)
Out of curiosity, what is your opinion on the sound samples on say amazon.com? Do artists get paid extra money for permitting amazon to post 50 second sound samples?
