Abstract
Music sharing on the Internet has been a hotly debated topic in the last five years. Music sharing advocates claim that people should have the right to trade music that they have rightfully purchased. Opponents of this practice argue that swapping songs destroys the music industry and violates copyright law. While this debate has raged and the courts have taken up the issue, the file-swapping phenomenon has brought significant, unanticipated changes to the recording industry and to the ways consumers buy music.
