Evil-Ryu-Goki, to say that music downloading is bad except if you just want one song or something is hypocritical. That is no different from going into a candy store and saying "hmm....here is a bag of mixed candy. I don't like the Baby Ruths, the Snickers or the Milky Ways, but I do want the Reeses Peanut Butter Cups," and then stealing only the Peanut Butter Cups. Stealing is still stealing...whether it's just one thing or a lot of things. You're stealing music without paying for it, and it's wrong.[/quote]
LOL........true but people don't care they just download!!! :laughlong:[/quote]
...But that is not the point of this topic. The point of this topic is if it is good or bad.

I think yes it is bad. While Britney Spears and J. Timberlake are rich. It is not fair to them. They take all this time to make a cd and no one goes out to buy it. Instead they download it offline. And btw it is not only Britney or Justin that get paid for the Cd. There is also the cd maker. The Studio people. The photographers. The mic people. The caterers. Even her limo driver. So when you download music off the internet illegally then you are not only ripping off Britney. You are also ripping off the 'little people'.

Oh and if the everyone did start downloading stuff off the internet for free. Then sooner or later we would run out of artist.
