Super down for a rerun. I think we all have some old connections to plan something ahead of time, on an updated game, or even outdated, for all of us to do an event on. I would look forward to that very much

 So, I have to type this essay for my comp class where I have to propose this company to study/measure a current issue in the world. I chose sound piracy and I was just looking for some opinions on my introduction paragraph.

Lost Profits: The Music Industry and Sound Piracy
One of the most controversial modern debates lies in the topic of sound piracy, such as peer-to-peer file sharing, torrenting, and bootlegging. Ever since the birth of Napster in the late 1990’s, and the subsequent lawsuit by the deservingly-maligned and teary-eyed pussy that is Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich, the debate has raged on the legality, fairness, and copyright-infringing subject of music piracy. Websites, programs, and CPU hardware have all been means of continuing the battle for unfettered and free (or substantially cheaper) access to music. With the recent increase in the price of popular individual songs from the iTunes Store, what more appropriate and opportune time to propose this question: What measurements can accurately, and without any form of assumption, decipher the loss of profits, sales, employment, and tax dollars resulting from the multifarious types of sound piracy?


It's just a rough draft, but let me know what you think. It seems like it could be a vaguely interesting paper.

 I like the topic, but there are some syntax issues in your abstract. Also, "CPU hardware" is nonsensical. You probably mean "computer hardware."

 Lost Profits: The Music Industry and Sound Piracy


One of the most controversial modern debates lies in the topic of sound piracy, such as peer-to-peer file sharing, torrenting, and bootlegging. Ever since the birth of Napster (perhaps clarify what Napster is) in the late 1990’s (don't think there's an appostrophy here, i've always been confused on decade/year possesives though.), and the subsequent lawsuit by the deservingly-maligned and teary-eyed pussy (really? enjoy your teacher reading this) that is Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich, the debate has raged on the legality, fairness, and copyright-infringing subject of music piracy. Websites, programs, and CPU hardware (see Amped's post)have all been means of continuing the battle for unfettered and free (or substantially cheaper) access to music. With the recent increase in the price of popular individual songs from the iTunes Store, what more appropriate and opportune time to propose this question: what measurements can accurately, and without any form of assumption, decipher the loss of profits, sales, employment, and tax dollars resulting from the multifarious types of sound piracy? (a QUESTION thesis? i don't know about it, but if you know it's okay.)

 This thread is not about Metallica being a good band.


Actually, no thread is. They suck dick.
