Music Download
A music download refers to the transferring of a music file from the internet to a user’s local
computer. This term includes both legal downloads and downloads of copyright material without permission or payment if required.
Legal music downloads typically involve the purchase of a song or album available for
downloading on the internet. Downloading music first became popular with file sharing technologies such as peer-to-peer networks, with people breaking copyright laws by not paying
for any of it. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) claimed that this practice
was damaging the music industry, and a series of law suits led to many of these networks
being closed down. However, those who support such technologies argued that the music
industry said the same thing about recordable tapes and CDs. Even when recorded music
came out as before then the artists got their money through live performance, and the industry should rather promote the advancements in technology than enforce prohibitions on
the practice.
There is a lot of free music online, which is offered by the copyright holders for various reasons. (For instance, some university orchestras have high-quality recordings of their performances.) This legitimate free music is often overlooked by the popular radio and TV stations.
Music stores
The second phase of music downloading was the online music store, where songs can be
downloaded at a price. In 2003, iTunes saw the huge increase of the popularity of legal
downloads. Other websites include URGE, Napster and MSN’s Music store. Ad-Supported
music stores are now starting to show up such as Spiralfrog and Qtrax which do not charge
for music downloads but sell advertising space to pay for the music downloads.
A third phase of downloading has now begun. Technical innovations allow for the downloading of real-time, radio broadcasted songs; straight to a user’s mobile phone and computer, such as DROPme in Sweden. Downloaded music is now more popular than CDs in
some countries; this has been seen in the UK where “Crazy” by Gnarls Barkley reached the
top in the UK Singles Chart based on download sales only.
Music downloads offered by artists
Some artists allow their songs to be downloaded from their websites, often as a short preview or a low quality sampling. Others have services in their sites that allow purchases of their
singles or albums, as demonstrated by Metallica’s official website. Other music artists have
offered their music to listeners for free, sometimes against the will of their record companies.
In 2005, Nine Inch Nails released their full length album, With Teeth, on their MySpace page,
before its official release date.
In addition to this and to music stores, peer-to-peer downloading programs or websites such
as Limewire, Kazaa, Bearshare and others are very popular. There is much controversy relating to filesharing due to copyright restrictions of recorded media.
Challenges to music downloading
Even legal music downloads have faced a number of challenges from artists, record labels
and the Recording Industry Association of America. In July 2007, the Universal Music Group
decided not to renew their long term contracts with iTunes. This legal challenge was primarily because of the pricing of songs, as Universal wanted to charge more or less depending
on the artist, away from iTunes’ standard 99 cents per song.
