Music Piracy has become a huge problem for the music industries. Music piracy is when people are downloading illegal copies of songs from artists without paying anything. There are basically 2 sides to this problem. One side knows that this is wrong and needs to be dealt with because artists are losing a lot of money when people download music illegally. Then there are the people who thing music piracy is a good thing and should be legal just because they are too cheap to pay for music. This problem definitely needs to be fixed, which is why there are now websites that lets you download unlimited music for a monthly fee.
I read the article about “How to save the music business” by Paul McGuiness. In this article the author talks about the occurring problem about music piracy and that it needs to be stopped. He states the problem and claims that he has found a solution for it. He provides facts about how much money record companies and artists are losing when people download music illegally. He comes up with the idea that ISP providers should include a fee in the monthly bill to let people download music and depending on how much they pay also the speed of it as well. This would definitely help solve the problem because then mostly everyone will be paying for the music they download.
