Well, I sell photos, and it's pretty annoying when people steal my stuff. Especially when it's an expense to me. So, I say downloading music for free should be illegal. Producing music is going to cost somebody money, and sales how they get that money back.
Although, I'm going to agree with the people who've said it, many music artists are quite overpaid. Music is a luxury, and yet it makes millions of dollars, versus something more essential, such as education, where teachers are quite possibly underpaid. So, pirating should be illegal, but the price of music should probably also be lowered a bit. Artists and/or labels get their money back, and more, and we'll be happy because it's cheaper, and we're receiving good entertainment. |
