No, downloading anything for free, unless the author allows it, is illegal. Some artists do allow it, and set up on there own sites their music for free, but for the most part, even if you buy a full version of a P2P program, what you download is illegal.
Limewire, Bearshare, Kazaa etc are all basically hosts... they don't have the music, they just connect you to people that do. Its like a smoke shop... if you get a bong from there, it is not their concern if you get busted using it to smoke weed LOL What you do with it is your business and your responsibility
Hope that helps!

Just downloading wouldnt be illegal at all.
But as you are downloading you are automatically also offering what you downloaded which is like copying and therefore illegal
