I am one of those people; I will deny it to the end when talking to my friends or wife, but on the anonymity of a comment function, I will admit I am a complete music pirate. I totally respect bands and the fact that they have to make a living as well, but it seems like they are doing quite well, while the recession has me eating at McDonalds every day. The problem is, on the cheapest of sites (Itunes, Rhapsody, etc.) the songs cost one dollar per song, and this adds up quickly, especially if you buy an entire album. Worst of all, it is charged to a credit card, so you forget how much you have bought after a while and keep spending in a wonderful bliss. Anyway, my main problem with pirating is viruses. It hasn’t happened to me yet, but my friend downloaded what he thought was a song and it turned out to be a virus. I know I’m next, so I’m going to take this article’s advice and be more careful while online. Ah Internet piracy, every one does it, but no one will admit it.
