    Do you illegally download music and programs? This inclues music, movies, programs, books, games, pictures, and tv.

    1. Why do you do it?

    2. And how many "items" do you have?

    3. Do you think it right or wrong?

    I agree how it is morally wrong but I still do it as even if I don't other people will benefit from it still

    I download everything, programs, games, music everything.
    I have like over 4000 "items" downloaded already, but that's not what I have on my pc. I have around 2k songs, 5 games and 3-4 programs illegal on my pc.

    Buying software and games is just too expensive and downloading music is easier for me, since there is no store near where I live that sell the music I like.

    I said no because it is not illegal where I live, I do often download pirated software though, mostly torrents.

    1. Why do you do it? Easy, doesn't cost anything.

    2. And how many "items" do you have? Well over 10,000

    3. Do you think it right or wrong? I think it's right, the western world should be more socialist, why can't poorer people enjoy music?

    Your analogy is much more extreme than the act of simply downloading software. There are many differences between virtual and physical merchandise, and also, I would be opposed to somebody stealing from a privately owned store, or perhaps, some private coder trying to make a little bit of money off of his program. But I'm not sad when I hear about somebody taking virtual goods, more specifically, arts, or software to aide somebody make more use of their lives. which should be at easy access to anyone from large corporations. I wouldn't be sad at all if I heard that Wal-Mart was robbed of say, a board game.

    Also, to answer your question, you would benefit if you got away with it, the store owner wouldn't then.

    Also, the definition of Socialism I was using was, from http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/socialism
    2 a: a system of society or group living in which there is no private property That society being the internet.

    I don't download "illegally", I simply share files with other people, just like people do on Youtube.

    http://www.riaa.com/toolsforparents.php?content_selector=legal_music_sites

    One of those sites would have your music for sale.

    Obviously some people pay, or else there wouldn't be any music.

    1. i do it mostly because i need a certain item (lets say adobe master suite)

    2. not to much.

    3. yea obviously its illegal and wrong. but some people don't do it not because they want it. Some people (like me) cant afford to pay 1,000+ or more in software. so it has its pro's and con's. its all a matter of opinion on how one feels its bad or good.
