Today, millions of people worldwide are considered to be criminals for ignoring the importance of copyrights law by downloading movies and music illegally. Some consumers were complaining about the copyrights and how it’s not necessarily to be fair with everyone. However, the purpose of creating the copyrights law is to protect the companies and individual business from the thieves on the internet who make large amounts of profit from their works. In this essay I will demonstrate the reasons why people shouldn’t get punished by the copyrights law.
Artists devote their time and a lot of effort into making songs and movies that are hoping will earn them money quickly. However, if their products get leaked on the internet they will lose a lot of money, and that will lead them to lose their motivation. Thus, copyrights is an essential to help these people from not losing their future career. Nevertheless, the thing that is hiding from everyone, not all people are be able to download the music by the main sources such as, Spotify, and Pandora for music service, and the Netflix, HBO for TV show service. Some of these great services are only exclusive in certain region which makes it harder for the consumer from different countries to use. The bad news here is that the consumer will be only offered with limited service with higher prices in exchange. Another reason that makes some consumers download the content from internet illegally is that some content get blocked from government for instance, The Interview by Evan Goldberg, or some of music that discussed on political issues, religions, and ethical matter. Additionally, the process to get
the entertainment has changed. People are no longer preferring to go with outdoor activities instead they rather to stay at home downloading their favorite TV shows, or listening to music.
