Illegal Downloading

[joshuar]

I think things are a tad to expensive, I'll nearly always buy DVDs as I like watching them on my TV, rather than hooking up my laptop and all this jazz.

If you were to buy 1000 songs at 79p each then you would have forked out £7900, which is a lot really. I know albums are cheaper in bulk and that, but that's still alot really.

no it aint

1000 x 79 = 79000 divide by 100 = £790.00

I shamelessly distort my morals when it comes to this.

I'm predominently against it - it's severely affecting the music industry.

I'll buy the albums of my favourite bands - usually on CD, sometimes off iTunes. But if I need to download a song I think is terrible - for some other reason or other, then I'll download it illegally.

I feel you should pay for good music.

People who make bad music can piss off. They're not having my money.

[Foals]

Why pay for something when you can get it for free, lol.

Nope should be legal and fine. When you have a project and you photobopy a page in a book, its the same thing. If you cant DL music, BAN photo-Copiers

Course it's not right. If everyone did that, how would bands/singers, game makers etc. make money?

I'm opposed to downloading music illegally - mostly CDs & iTunes for me on that front, but I do download TV illegally, especially American TV.

It's obvious why I do it - I can't watch it otherwise!

No one get's upset or charged or their RADIO cut off for taping songs off the radio, yet with the internet everyone gets all upset. If we have the capability to get them for free then there's always going to be people doing it.

ehh it's free so i don't care. if one person gets caught then surely everyone should.. not that it's possible but yeh

I think illegal downloading is so popular now a days is because the prices for some stuff is just crazy. Paying £50 for a game when the console itself costs just £120? You can get a new console for the price of just 3 games. Its ridiculous.
Maybe if the prices were more affordable, people would buy softwares / dvd's more instead of illegally downloading it.
