In the decade and a half since Napster first emerged, forever changing the face of digital culture, the claim that “internet pirates killed the music industry” has become so ubiquitous that it is treated as common knowledge. Piracy is a scourge on legitimate businesses and hard-working artists, we are told, a “cybercrime” similar to identity fraud or even terrorism.

A great thing I could take away from this book has to be the way it throughly describes how ruthless the industry is becoming. The effort people are going to breakaway these restrictions ins't something that should just be overlooked no more how minor the issue seems to us as people who just inherently choice to abide the laws which are broken these are a big concern to us in a way as well.
