eMule is a tool to transfer files - like FTP/HTTP - and is therefore legal. However as for every tool, that doesn't means that every possible usage is legal. In nearly all countries it is forbidden in to download copyrighted material without the consent of the owner. that includes songs, movies, or any other copyrighted materials
Yes, Emule is a free program used for downloading and sharing all types of files. You assume any risk when downloading the software though.
yes its legal
No
nope.
Some benefits of downloading eMule are: Everyone can share files that are within a specified directory, files are fully searchable, this hubs are restricted and does not allow pornography.
If the songs are copyright protected and have been uploaded without permission then no it is not legal.
illegal
No it is not legal. But my friends do it and they do not get in trouble.
You should not be downloading free songs. Downloading free songs is illegal, no matter how many sites claim to be completely legal. You should be buying the songs from iTunes or other legal places to get songs.
NO ;)
Depends on the songs. It's not the downloading as such that's illegal, it's if you're downloading copyrighted material. Not copyrighted material can be downloaded as much as you like.
eMule is a tool to transfer files - like FTP/HTTP - and is therefore legal. However as for every tool, that doesn't means that every possible usage is legal. In nearly all countries it is forbidden in to download copyrighted material without the consent of the owner. So if you plan to download the latest cinema blockbusters for example, that would be most likely not a legal usage of eMule and we strongly advise against doing so. Sometimes it might be hard to determine if a given file is legal to download or not - if you want to be sure to not violate any copyrights we suggest to use websites like our ContentDB where all linked files are verified to have a license which allows downloading them on eMule.
