Is music piracy stealing?




When we watched the short film about film piracy ofcourse it wasn’t the first time i watched it. However, i can remember the first time i watched it. Firstly, i was a little impressed, but the end of the day it didn’t keep me from downloading music illegally. Thus, i don’t think music piracy is stealing. In the article of Charles Moore, i believe that his major supporting point is that there is no different between music piracy and photocopying pages from books or any copyrighted material. If we accept music piracy as stealing the effort of the singer, than it would be worse copying the text which people give their hours to write. In my opinion the writer also has a good point on taping movies or series from tv as there is no difference than downloading music.
