Term topic: "Is Piracy really killing the music industry? How is new mediaeffecting the music industry and music artists"


I will be discussing the difficulties the music industry is facing as far as privacy and how it is choking sales. Nowadays people are downloading MP3 tracks for free though types of media like torrents, piratebay, soulseek etc, instead of purchasing them legally online or through retail stores. This is effecting the music industry as musicians will are left with no real incentive to produce music as they arent profiting from their work.
