Illegal Internet Activities.

If it is illegal to download free music off the internet and watch movies on the internet (besides Netflix) for free. Then why does everyone still it and not get in trouble. I know a lot of people and a lot of sites where you can download free music.And download music videos. I also know some sites where you can watch movies that are STILL in theaters. 
Watching the movies online are legal but whoever put the movies up could get in a lot of trouble. 

If things are illegal than how do people get away with it? Without any consequences. You never hear about anyone getting in trouble. There are even apps on the app store that you can download music for free. I don't know what this says as a society. I mean music on iTunes store is usually $1.29. I remember when it was only $.99 then they changed it. If you think about 1.29 for one song is not cheap. Why pay it when you can enjoy music for free. After doing some research downloading music online is pretty easy. First you have to find a website that does it. Some sites are different. Some use a YouTube link you just copy and paste others have a library you can choose from.  If you have an Android phone you can download straight to your phone and enjoy. But if you have an iPhone it is a little bit trickier. With an iPhone you have to download it to your computer then add it to your iTunes library. Then plug in you iPhone and enjoy. 

I know people that do this all the time because they don't want to pay for music which is understandable. If they say it’s illegal then why isn't there consequences for it. Why doesn't anyone get in trouble for doing it? There isn't any way for anybody to know that you do either. I didn't think it was that bad. Until I looked it up and it is about a $750 per file. So there is a consequence but not that many people get charged with it. I wonder why. 

If it is a movie I don’t think it is illegal because you aren’t actually downloading you are just watching it online. I think that the people uploaded it to the site are the ones that could get in a lot of trouble. So there are consequences to downloading music. I am not saying that you should in anyway or form. It is against the law and there is a fine. I am not encouraging it.
