mp3s

This does come up often and I’ve even started a thread like this before, but the circumstances are different.

I don’t advocate piracy and having everything you own be taken off the 'net. But I have occasionally watched movies [usually making sure to rent them shortly after or make sure they’ve been free on TV before] and mp3s of songs that one cannot easily get in the States. These are CDs which must be imported and are $40-$60 dollars-- I fully intend to buy these when they becoming cheaper, or I become richer.

Would the intent make this a venial sin, or would it still be mortal and should I start a “CD fund” ?

Since you are asking this question, I will surmise that your conscience has left a little twinge of “uncomfortableness” inside you. Listen to your conscience and start a CD fund.

What type of imported CD cost $40-60 bucks? If they happen to be live concert cd’s then more than likely they are illegally bootlegged already.

What type of music are you into and what is a CD fund?

They’re mainly soundtracks from various anime- theme songs and background music. They cost a lot if they aren’t in the States yet.

CD fund? Putting aside money so I can buy these merely.
