   It depends - did you download the songs legally?

   If so, then there is no problem. You own the songs, you can sell them, just like you could sell a CD.

   If you downloaded the songs illegally, then it is illegal.

   Yes, and if the RIAA buys it from you it will cost you thousands of dollars. Reformat that sucker right now.

   Yes it is. It’s a violation of the copyright to the songs.
