(Pirates of the Multiplex)
Okay, after several rounds of intellectual debate over the whole piracy issues, I do admit it is certainly an infringement of copyrights and civil liberties in the music or movie industry. I guess there are 2 solutions to the problem: 1) either you continue ripping music off cds or downloading stuff from 'illegal' sites such as Bit Torrent or Kazaa, and risk being caught and get yourself fined and even jailed OR 2) be a good boy/girl, fork out your own pennies and buy the songs from a decent online music store.
Can I say, it's essentially a choice between 1) economic reasons AND 2) moral/ethic issues?
