In the USA, the answer is A. In more enlightened countries like Canada, the answer is B. Our Supreme Court has recognized the truth: the person breaking the law is the one uploading the music, not the person downloading it.
I feel sorry for all you poor saps living in America. Your laws are written to inflate the profits of the fat cats instead of serving the public good.

depends...
It's illegal when you download a song that you didn't buy...
But if you bought that song i don't think that there's a problem to download or copy the song for your own use...
It's illegal when you start to sell those songs without paying the royalties...

It's legal if you use a paid service that has the right to be selling them.

It depends on what site you're downloading from.

If you wrote or performed a score of music, would you expect to paid royalties?
