A
Huge Concern Over Web: Music Download
by: Plaily
Muzic Internet has come to change
everything that once relations used to be lied
on. Since Internet had invaded homes, the daily
life has never been the same again. Internet changed
the family's habits, the culture and the way someone
sees the world. Music is just a part of this change.
Regarding to music, this issue is even more complicated.
People now can prepare their own CDs by downloading
music from the Internet. And this has become another
problematic thing that has contributed to increase
the piracy.
The music download problem lies on two issues:
- If people can have access to the most varied
types of music, they can have a better idea of
a particular artist's material, they can find
out singers they had never heard of and get their
CDs even this. These actions may be a little bit
illegal and sometimes reduce the profits of the
big music companies, but, however, it increases
the range where a singer is known. When this happens,
both singer and his/her music records win a special
recognition, which may lead to the hire of them
for shows and (guess what?) profits.
- But if it is true that music download can be
beneficial for an artist, sometimes it can also
be harmful, speaking about profits of course.
And this loss of money in general happens to already
famous artists. People download their songs from
the Internet because they already know that singer
and because they like him/her.
The big music industry complex has a tough battle
to face. Profits or recognition!? Profits and
recognition depends on each other: you only have
profits when you achieve recognition, but your
recognition can be measured by your profits. How
to solve the problem?
Well, even if this matter seems to be far from
a solution, some measures are being taken by the
companies. Some laws have been created and other
demands are being done. Even if it is hard to
supervise all the websites on the Internet that
offer music download, some people have been being
charged of piracy and arrested.
Janis Ian on her article states that the music
download increases the profit of the music industries,
instead of what these industries allege. According
to Janis, when people downloads a music form he
Internet and get to know that song, they buy the
CD because they already liked it and have no way
to regret buying that CD. She also states that
this happens because most of people cannot pay
for a CD just to "give it a try".
Music download is a reality - no matter what.
