The government’s copyright policy causes both frustration and excitement in the music industry
McDonagh, L.
(2012).
The government’s copyright policy causes both frustration and excitement in the music industry.
Luke McDonagh argues that the government isn’t enforcing the Digital Economy Act, which introduced severe penalties for those illegally downloading copyrighted music online, because of the potential political backlash from the large number of illegal downloaders in the UK. There is much room for improvement in legal online music infrastructure that will serve as the ‘carrot’ to end rampant online piracy.
