To be honest, I still remember the good old days where I had my iPod and I would struggle with downloading music from ITunes because I had to purchase them. That’s when my friend told me to simply type in google download songs for free. That’s when websites like “LimeWire” and “Mp3 Skull” came up. Then it moved on to watching free movies on the go. Its easy and free, who wouldn’t want to watch a movie for free? But now we have websites like “NETFLIX” and “HULU”, but there are still people downloading movies, which is illegal in the U.S.
According to the first article, I agree no one can kill piracy, and piracy wont kill you. Unless you get a virus and hacked. But other than that there will always be a way to find piracy. People want convenience because we have become lazy people and want things at our fingertips at a cheap price. Just like how Paul Tassi stated in the first article, “ I might take every movie in that fictional store if I was able to, but would I have spent $3 million to legally buy every single DVD? No, I’d probably have picked my two favorite movies and gone home. ” (You Will Never Kill Piracy, and Piracy Will Never Kill You”, Paul Tassi)
