Downloading Songs for Free from a Website
Question
A website uploads music and charges for it, claiming that the money goes to the singers. There is an option to download from the site for free; is it allowed, or is it like taking from a music store?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
If the website allows downloading for free, it is permitted. If the website does not allow it, it is forbidden.
