For and against essay: the SOPA law

Some time ago, a new law was presented in USA. It banned the free download of films, music or any other intelectual propiety. This law has caused a big discussion between people from differents societies.

On the one hand, it's true that free download can affect to the economy of the owners of the films or music. It also reduces the money earned by gobernments with taxes and it reduces the possibilities of some authors to continue producing.

On the other hand, most of the people who make music or films earn a lot of money, even when free downloading was "legal". Some people hasn't got so much money, but they want to listen to music or to watch a film, so the easiest way is free downloading.

In my opinion, free downloading shouldn't be banned. Artists earn a lot of money, and free downloading doesn't affect them that much. However, I think that, if you really like any film or music, and if you have the money, you must pay for it, above all if the artist is not so famous.
