I think some kind of licensing was tehcnicall there, it was just easy to ignore back then bc they weren't pushing it in our faces every second (like i remember warnings on beginning of movies even before 2000s). I kinda remember one of my friends getting music off amzaon a long time ago but for stuff like that i assume it was just a EULA that they could click once and be done with (no clue how it works present day). Maybe it depends on exactly what we're talking about, but just saying I'm confident that greedy bastards would have some kind of legal something tied to it, even in 2000s before you could download. I just don't care - don't let em know you real info and fuck em 😀
