So we all know that downloading from Frostwire/Limewire is illegal but what about downloading from Youtube? IF I download an .flv and extracted the audio and converted it to an MP3, would that be illegal? I don't want to do anything that's illegal although, I tried one just to see if it would work and the sound is amazing. I just don't see the diff. between people uploading/downloading on Youtube vs. Frostwire/Limewire. Maybe somebody can enlighten me. Thanks.

Just using common sense I would say yes because you're still getting content for free when it does have a price on it, you're just getting it a different way.
