Napster

Napster Is running a program like Napster ethical' The United States Government does not think so because lately they have been closing the doors on these programs. We will look at Mill’s Utilitarian principle, Kant’s End Principle, and Rawls three principles of Justice. Also we will see if these theories would be for Napster distributing music or against Napster. Looking at Mill’s Utilitarian principle we see that it is the greatest happiness for the greatest amount of people. Mill’s probably would have agreed with Napster because a lot of people were happy with it. Considering how many people used it. Mill’s also implicates the defense of liberty. Such as freedom of speech, free market, and freedom to unite. Napster provided a free market of songs over the internet. Some say it was illegal others think it was other. In Mill’s eye’s it probably would have been alright to share the music because it made more people happy then mad. In Kant’s End Principle he states that you should always treat people as you want to be treated. In other words it is referring to the Golden Rule of “Due unto others as you would do to them.” So I guess the owners napster, people, wrong, think, owners, justice, way, look, stealing, program, one, music, money, because, songs, really, principle, out, mill’s, make, artist, time, theory, share, rawls, programs, morally, just, ways, took, should, same, retributive, others, made, don’t
