Music download was at the beginning of the Internet until well beyond the first decade of this century often a criminal activity. Various copyright regulations have now legalized these possibilities and many publishers and music producers now offer this form of legal trade themselves. For some months now you have been able to find a link to these legal sites on certain works, where you can – for a fee – buy the whole work or parts of it and print it yourself.
