Downlaoding Music

As time goes by I still can't help but think how music downloading sites, such as the old Napster or Limewire, are killing the record industry. I personally am against downloading music and think that music downloading sites should be shut down. A lot of people argue and say it is not a big deal because the artists are already rich. That may or may not be true but one of my arguements is that it is also taking away money from the people who work at the record company. Not the big CEOs or producers but the little people. The janitors for the buildings or even the secretary answering phones. It is unfair to steal music. Would you go to a store and steal a hundred shirts, or go to the grocery store and steal groceries? Then why would you steal hundreds or even thousands of songs. I know music is a form of expression but it is also a product. These sites take away from this and can even cripple smaller record companies that are just getting started leaving only the large name industries such as warner brothers or geffin. Music downloading needs to be stopped before it does even more damage to the record industry.
