It's WAY easier what are you on about? Name a song and I'll send you a link.

Yeh this is insanity, everything is literally a voice command away today. Don't know a song? Shazam on your pocket computer in the middle of the dance floor and you've got it.

Back in the day (I mean, PRIOR TO P2P), you'd have to pray the song was uploaded to mp3 galaxy or one of the other 3 websites on the internet that just had a list of 100-200 songs, then wait 24 hours for it to download and hope the connection doesn't fail half way through so you have to start all over again.
