Is downloading illegal music a good or bad thing, many artists are out there arguing different cases for it so here are the positives and the negatives?
The Good
The great thing about it is that you can listen to the album before you go to the shops and buy it, only liking a few songs means that you only have to buy the songs that you like. This is very handy because often people do not like the entire album but may feel that there are a few really good tracks on it. Money is a big issue here as people just do not have all of the money to go out and buy all of the albums they are after as many of them are actually quite expensive.
The Reasonably Bad
The thing is, everyone seems to know that music downloading for free is something that is not allowed. People argue saying why should you pay McDonalds for you to get fat and tobacco companies for you to get lung cancer when music is something you enjoy and is good for you. Well because people can. If someone was to try and get these for free they would be thrown in a cell for five years, why should it be different for music.
People tend to forget that that this is actually illegal and shouldn’t be done.
The Ugly
Artists like Shakira actually believe that when her fans are downloading the music for free that they feel more connected with her and appreciate her a lot more. It is okay for artists like her to say this as she has millions in the bank to sit on if it all goes wrong. The artist that has it right has to be Lily Allen, why shouldnt people pay for their music. It is not cheap to make an album which is why a lot of the new artists really struggle to hit it off. It is also very time consuming to sit and write all of the music and many bands make all of their money through album sales and not t-shirt and gig sales.
Bands must fork out to buy all of their different guitars like electric guitars and the bass guitars.
With Spotify and other similar programmes out, there is no excuse at all for downloading illegal music when you can listen to it for free first without download.
