The rise of internet file-sharing has opened a whole new front for piracy of all films - not least independents. The availability of films for download on the internet even before their initial theatrical release makes the prospect of profitable licensed distribution of independent films in some territories even more remote, according to many in the industry. The pirated films are coming earlier all the time, and the fact that there's going to be faster and faster broadband and faster and faster downloads is only going to make it worse.Piracy is primarily a problem for the entertainment and software industries, and therefore piracy most often involves violations of copyright law.“I am against any piracy either internet or any other property right. It deprives commercial gains to all the people who deal with a original literally artifacts and discourages them from further investing their time, effort and money in creating new ideas and programs” says R.N.Shukul, faculty of Manipal University.
There are many as such people who value the creativity and do not steal any of the material from internet. Most of the acts of piracy are common among youngster and students. They largely depend on the content given on internet which is basically for reference. Youngsters download movies, songs, games etc without realizing that what kind of crime they are committing. There are few students who think that piracy is a crime and do not support it at any cost. Nilofar khatib, 20 year old student says “if you value creative intelligence you should never indulge in piracy. I will kill any person who will steal my creativity.”
Well the industries are taking steps from very long, many of them has been successful in discontinuing piracy while others are still striving. Copyright is a legal right that protects creative works from being reproduced, performed, or disseminated without permission of the copyright owner. Essentially, a copyright gives its owner the exclusive right to make copies of the material in question. “I feel that it is the responsibility of the information technology giants such as the World Wide Web consortiums (w3c) and the internet society (ISOC) to come with innovative and practical solutions to the piracy issue to secure people’s right on the internet” says Adnan Ali, student of IT.
If this problem continues to grow then no one could even imagine what havoc it will cause to all the major entertainment companies and what threat it is causing to their business. Taking serious measure will definitely help in ceasing this theft.
