All of us love free stuff. Most of us actually download stuff like Movies, songs, videos etc. from the internet instead of actually buying the original movie DVDs or purchasing songs. These downloads by a vast majority has lead to a steady decline in the purchases of this digital content. Hence piracy is banned in most countries.

Pirated downloads actually means downloading of stuff that is shared online by someone. It doesn't necessarily mean stealing by the end user. So if such downloads are made legal then the user can ethically and freely download such a content. As for the revenue for the content creator, the revenue can be generated through other means like ads, donations etc.

So what is your take on this. Do you think Pirated "free" downloads must be made legal.

Yes.

It would help the content reach maximum people

Con Side (12)

No.

It would be unethical and content creator would loose revenues
