Should Music be Free?







Music can be downloaded by anyone for free in a matter of seconds by many different types of downloading software. There are very few people who actually pay for the music they download on their computer. In Canada it is not against the law to download music for your personal use. People take advantage of this because it is so much easier to download from software such as limewire then to spend money out of your own pocket to pay for a song. It is not necessarily good to be doing this because the artists are not being rewarded for their own music. We are basically stealing from the artists by downloading their music for free. Personally I think it is nice to own CDs of your favourite artists because it has the album cover and all the liner notes from the artist and it makes you feel more connected to the artist. Not only are you doing the right thing by paying for their music but it is also rewarding for you to know that you are giving back to your favourite artists.
