My old computer took a shit and all of my music was on it. I am gonna see if I can get anything recovered. But in the meantime I am looking for suggestions on the best way for me to download new music now. Previously I was using Azureus and [isohunt.com](http://isohunt.com) for my music. I hear that it opens me up to lots of potential viruses and such. So how do you do download your music?
