Many examples come to mind to the question of copyright infringement online. A huge example that falls under the radar due to limewire and the old napster scam is Torrents. Bittorrent is a peer to peer program that allows you to download not only individual files but folders upon folders of things. Bittorrent takes piracy to a knew level. For example on limewire I could download just one song by an artist, but with Bittorrent i could download the artists entire Discography. Also with this program you can pirate other "cracked programs". So instead of paying upwards of $100 for Adobe Photoshop all you have to do is go on a Torrent search engine, find it, and wait for it to download and you have it for free. Not to be a hypacrite, I love this program. I myself do pirate music and other programs.
