Correction appended
Due to the recent crackdown on file-sharing, have you been
downloading fewer music files? Emily Chen Third-year,
communication studies “I never used to download that
much, but a lot of files are harder to get now … before, I might
have downloaded entire albums.”
Kristin Mata Fourth-year, music
“It’s frustrating to even find music online. However, I
can see how it’s improved the situation as far as people
downloading entire CDs, which I wouldn’t have done
originally.” Mark Thomas Fourth-year, biochemistry
student “Yes, because I don’t want to get in
trouble. … I wish I could get more free music, of course, but
it’s getting out of hand.” Mezardo Jsujesus
Fourth-year, political science and history “When I
used to live in the dorms, Napster was at its peak, so I kind of
feel sorry for everyone in the dorms now because they have more
restrictions.”
