Copyright

P2P (Peer to Peer) networks like Limewire or KaZaA violate copyright law. To put it simple, YOU MAY copy your own CD for your personal use only. YOU MAY NOT give this copy to another person. The online infringement of copyrighted music can be punished up to three years in prison and $250,000 in fines. If this happens to the same person a second time, they will be imprisoned up to six years. In July 2007, Universal Music Group decided not to renew their contract with Itunes. This was based upon the issue of pricing songs. Universal wanted to be able to charge more or less depending on the artist, and Itunes standard price was 99 cents per song.
