Yes
What year are we in? We are in 2009 soon to be in 2010 and technology is moving faster and faster and the government cannot keep up.
Now a day’s people do not really use CD players or walkmans or even cassette players for that everything is electronic mp3 players, I Pods, and even on their phones. Technology rules our world and the one thing that will not stop is music downloading, with systems like Napster, Limewire, Kazaa, ect…In order to keep a monitor on this he government would have to crack down on the servers that provide this possibility and the ones who commit it as well. But that cost money, and a lot of time considering millions of people commit this act every day. The government cannot keep track of all those people and the likelihood that you will get caught is slim. There scare tactics consist of charging the one’s that they can find thousands and thousands of dollars but these are only a handful of cases. The one thing that seems to keep occurring is no matter what software gets put up to block users from doing something there is always someone who is going to break it and it has been happening on a regular basis in every type of "uncrackable" software.

The government for once is outmatched and it doesn’t seem like they are going to find an answer. This issue is one that exceeds many because it affects millions of people, kind of like marijuana. Marijuana has been a the topic of becoming legal, now it has been decriminalized because it affected too many people that they couldn’t control kind of like the situation with illegal music downloading. Maybe they will lay off the internet issues and just begin to decriminalizing it when it is witnessed instead of taking a few people and charging them almost half a million dollars just to prove a point. The drastic way to get rid of this issue is to control the internet fully like China does but that would be unconstitutional. It is not that I believe it should be illegal because it does take away from the music business, but I feel that it is uncontrollable unless we use drastic measures that make everyone who has download music be punished. In order to keep a monitor on this he government would have to crack down on the servers that provide this possibility and the ones who commit it as well. But that cost money, and a lot of time considering millions of people commit this act every day.
