<It's not for free, folks!>


As we enter the era of "everything is online" world, it gets easier to watch the movie or listen to the songs without paying. You can see the latest film for free if you have a little knowledge about downloading things on the internet. However, this is a bad act for everyone in the society. It can hurt not just people who make the movie. It could affect people who download it eventually.

 

 

Making a movie costs a lot of money, time, and effort. It means many people have to 'physically' work to create a film. Because you can't touch or feel it, it doesn't mean that it can be made out of nowhere. It's just same as making chairs or desks. You have a responsibility to pay for their work and efforts just as you do when you buy cosmetics or clothes.

 

 

 There's a lot of jobs related to the movie such as writer, director or actor. They make their living by making movies. If you download the movie illegally, they will lose jobs and there will be no movie to enjoy. It seems exaggerated, but it's true. How can they keep making films if they can't afford the expense? They are not philanthropists.

 

 

Jobs related to art or creation has increased in our society. It will keep increasing. If we don't pay for the movie right now, no one will pay for other contents that would be created in the future. this would greatly threat the stability of society, since people who has their career in the field of art or intellectual property couldn't manage their living.

 

I know, download movies without paying is the fastest and cheapest way to watch the films. In long-term point of view, however, it will hurt many people's lives. Making movies require a lot of imagination and actual labor to make it real. Yes, we are all poor college students. But if you keep refusing to pay for their creation, maybe there would be no movies to watch in the future.
