My age is 28, and there are several reason for me starting to download.
For music it was the convince of just leeching and then listen. If you did not like it Shift+Del. Instead of walking to a record store and listening to 30 sec on each song then decide. I was also into some music that our local record shops did dont have, so i had to order a lot of albums from them (witch usually took around 2-4 weeks to arrive) and when they finally arrived, run to the store and get the record then come home to find out it was the utter crap..

I also download a lot of tv shows, i do that for several reasons as well. Firstly because it takes around 3 months form the episode is shown in the US before it airs in my country(and thats only if its a really popular show) some show takes years to come here. Secondly i work shifts, so im not always at home at the same time week after week. I might be working or sleeping when the show airs. And third the convinace of choosing what to watch and when to watch it. Nothing beats that.

Movies i usually watch at the theater, because nothing beats going out with some friends or taking a girl to a date and watch a grate movie. (kinda sucks if you have watched everything thats airing) That being said i do download movies as well, but for those movies its only those that i dont need to watch in a theater. Like independents or some cheesy comedy. I do not mind paying for the movies i watch, though i do not own a car and walking to the store and renting a movie then having to return it the next day is simply a hassle when i can download what ever movie i want to watch in less then 20 minutes. Another reason is that movies takes to freaking long to get released. Usually find dvdrips 4-8 months before they come to the store here, and lets face it, if you know its a grate movie that you are dieing to watch you are not going to wait 8 months to watch when you dont have to..

I'm 25 years old and I download illegally (mostly music) because I can't afford to buy all these albums that I would like to listen to. However, I still buy the albums that I like, I go to gigs and I support my favorite artists in whichever way I can. I believe that file sharing is the most effective way to spread the word about a new album and let people decide if they like it or not. Downloading allows me to try before I buy. I don't find it more convenient. In fact, I enjoy record shopping a lot but usually I don't have enough money. I started file sharing when I was 10 and traded mixtapes with my friends Some years later, I discovered Napster.

I really don't care if it's legal or not. I'll do it as long as I can easily get away with it because I believe that the copyright law is outdated and unfair. I also believe that most artists (musicians, directors, programmers etc) would rather let their work become known to a lot of people through file sharing than remain unknown. If people have seen your work, they might support you (in case they can afford it).
