This composition is about downloading music from the internet and its relation to piracy. There are several arguments for and against, from my point of view. And I think there’s more arguments for than against it.
The main advantages about downloading music are:
Customers don’t have to pay for the music itself, which is a good thing because that lets you own a lot of music without having to spend any money on it.
Most of the times, downloaded music was never meant to be bought, in the first place. Which is a good thing for companies that profit from selling music, because you get to know more music and that lets you go to concerts or buy more music from a particular artist you only knew after downloading his records.
Music is culture, a representation of society itself, it comes from the people and it should be shared among the people. So the concept of ownership of music itself is flawed, because anybody should have free access to it.
Some of the disadvantages about downloading music are:
Music piracy is a bad thing for companies because they lose money, and it’s the same with singers, they lose money too. But it’s not really that they lose money, they don’t receive money they could have received if the user had purchased the music instead of downloading it (but the fact that one downloads a song doesn’t mean that if he coulndn’t be able to download it, he’d bought it). It’s not exactly the same.
One of the things to address is quality of music itself. Sometimes companies blame users that download music of having less sales, but have they wondered that it could be because most of the music that it’s released nowadays it’s as disposable as toilet paper?
Actually all I can see are advantages, music companies squeeze out singers to make even more profits, and they also get money from a tax on blank cds (regardless of its final use). The ones who lose in this situation are customers, because they have to pay more for blank cds even if they’re not going to use them to store copyrighted music. So companies are blaming it on the users that don’t use cds for piracy. In my opinion, everybody should download music to make companies understand that not everything is about the money you make.
