Nowadays is so convenience for us to download our favorite music from internet instead of buying CD from shop either pirated! just search the website most popular is Limewire and Baidu for (especially for chinese songs) click the button of Downloading, file sharing program after collected all the song and burn into CD-ROM then you can get all your favorite singer's latest song or old song as well. Any song is possible to find through internet.
But i just read an article bout about downloading music is the copyright protection laws that people break everyday by downloading some music tracks off the Internet. but laws regarding the sharing and dowloading of music on the internet are different from country to country. So different countries different law issue about this copyright of music downloading!
Such as Canada dowloading copyright music networks is legal but for US Copyright Act is much more strict and illegal. In more general items that related is about the copyright are unauthorized reproduction, adaption or distribution of recodings.
So guys, get some knowledge before download songs. For Malaysian I am not sure about this, but my opinion is quite unfair for the singers and distributors' right. For what I knew surrounding us we will only buy and support our own favourtie singers. Those unwell known singer just simply download from the website is convenience and did not cost us a single cent. Recession is coming is this another excuse for people 'free donwload' from website rather than buy a CD that cost us 30 to 40 bucks?

good article,
ReplyDeleteya nowadays the internet is so easy to download the songs, or movie, even the album haven't come out then internet can get already. eg Jay Chou's album. I think the government need to do something like stricten the law then the public only will beware of this issue.
well, people would do anything for free stuff! I did not about all these legal issues when i download songs from websites...and i do not know what the Malaysia government has done to againts people from illegally download songs from internet....
ReplyDeletei don't think that malaysia government will take action on that.nowadays there was alot of website for people to download songs or movie.i think if the government can reduce the price of the CD or DVD.the percentage of download songs and movie will reduce.
