This weeks reading was an eye opener to me as I regularly burn CD’s, DVD’s and catch up on Hollywood gossip online instead of buying albums, movies and magazines. I probably see this as a normal occurrence among our society but have never really thought of it as stealing. It was associated to the technology existing to hotwire a car and not making it okay either. It is kind of funny because I don’t think I have actually bought a CD album or single since primary school and I didn’t even have many then. I think it is just the generation in which we live in, some many calling it the ‘iPod generation’, that it is culturally acceptable to steal music without feeling morally wrong.
But I say why pay for something when you can get it for free…
