Free Music Downloading <Tab/>Should free- music downloading be banned? I believed that allowing free access to unlimited songs could eventually undermine the music industry; however, nobody wants to pay outrageous amounts just for a few good songs on a bad CD. When I looked up information regarding these stats, results shocked me. The people who never download files or pirate CD's (about 54% of the population) make up only 39% of music …showed first 75 words of 1059 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1059 total…a gray blur instead of clearly defined black or white, it is hard to make a complete stand. However, as much as I argue against it, I can't deny that downloading can be extremely useful. Being that the RIAA and other such groups have been trying to deny us correct information statistics, I make my stand as a pro-downloader. > -Full credit for this essay must go to Y.
