Music Piracy

This is one of those topics that I don't know where I stand. I had a discussion with one of my colleagues on this topic and I found it really hard to take a stand.

It definitely seems unethical and incorrect to download mp3's online and share them with the whole world. But since it's such a ubiquitous thing that it doesn't feel you're doing wrong. Mp3's are a very close part of our generation. Everyone wants to have the latest songs downloaded from the internet. And the talk of paying for a download. Who does that?

I feel that music piracy is like corruption in India. Everyone knows that it is wrong but continue to be a part of it. Why? Because everyone does it.

It is very convenient to do the ‘wrong’. Especially, when there are a ton of people doing the same. The intelligence which senses the wrong ….again, conveniently ignores it. A good example and valid point, to be considered very seriously!
