@warlocksarewatching Honestly I get where your coming from, but I don't blame the public. I think the internet enables the public AND businesses to do things much more easily which is what enable piracy.Part of the original purpose of copyright was to cover the costs of producing whatever product was sold;if businesses are losing money off of copyright infringement, then they're also able to advertise and produce more.Copyright laws needs to mesh with the internet;that's the root of the problem.

@xxEternallyBluexx There technically is a law that's pretty clear that was passed in the mid 90s the problem really has to do with the big search engines--they're not doing their jobs taking down illegal sites. I agree though, we need clearer legislation so people will fucking learn to not do it. The public is out of control in a big way, they don't seem to care because it's not like stealing from a corner store or a bank--it's much harder to get caught.

@warlocksarewatching Most people don't even know when they're violating copyright laws though. In Infringement Nation (which I would recommend, because it makes a lot of good points), it says the average person commits 4.5 billion dollars worth of copyright infringement in a year. To me, that says the copyright laws are out of control, not the public. Copyright laws need to be enforceable, reasonable and clear, because right now they're a joke.
Fuck those music producers, they make over tens and tens of millions, if 10% of people download, it wont' hurt. It's like you are making 10 million a year, instead you are going to make 9 million a year. POOR THING!!! fucking assholes, shove your dollars in your ass and die.

Can't people see? Music IS free. You get it from "illegal" downloads, from a friend, or Youtube. There are other ways for musicians to get money. Imagine how much money an artist gets in a world tour.
You CAN listen to music without paying.
Fun Fact: did you know that 20 years ago, MTV used to play free music?
