Buy or Pirate Music?

Nowadays, a lot of people prefers pirating music than buying it as the prices for music are more expensive than it should be. However, is this true?

On the one hand, it is true that currently, the music is becoming more and more expensive and not every song worths the price it is given. Besides, the price of music is increasing as nowadays a lot of music is online and it can be pirated very easily.

On the other hand, even though pirating is an "easy" way to listen to some music without paying it, the quality is not comparable in a lot of times. In addition, with pirating, the risk of having viruses or other computer or mobile problems is high.

Furthermore, paying music is very important, as a lot of people depend on how the sellings go. If the music is pirated, it would mean a lot of losses for the record companies and artists, and these people would have worked for nothing.

To sum up, personally, I think that not only music should be paid, as a lot of people have been working a lot of time on these projects.
