I try to buy when I can but about 60% of my music is downloaded so no I don't think it is morally wrong.

Stealing is taking something from someone so they no longer have it.

Downloading is duplicating it, therefor you're not stealing you are sharing. Sharing is not morally wrong.

So it's only 60% morally wrong? I just don't get why having some legal and some illegal (assuming illegal) downloads makes it moral or not. The downloading of other people's "intellectual property" is either moral or not. Not the size of the library.
