Mp3 Downloading of Music A teenager named Tom, walked into a music store last week and went straight to his favorite music section. After looking around for a short amount of time he spotted the CD he wanted. Tom then tore the magnetic sensor off the front of the package, stuffed the CD down his pants and then proceeded to walk through the front doors of the store, stealing the CD. Most people would say what Tom did was against the law and he should be punished for the crime. What if I was to say this crime happens thousands of times per hour everyday, in a slightly different way and the people who commit the crime get away with it almost every time. The type of crime I am talking about is file sharing over the Internet. Particularly music files otherwise known as MP3 files. MP3 is short for MPEG audio layer three, which is an audio compression file that enables you to download high fidelity music from the web by shrinking the file. This has been made extremely popular by a program called Napster, which allows people to share music over the net in MP3 music, people, money, downloading, say, cd, because, out, napster, computer, companies, about, right, mp3’s, internet, download, work, stealing, someone, one, lot, law, just, different, copyright, time, price, new, hard, even, don’t, crime, big, way, violation
