Portfolio 10/10

Now that you've done some research, the focus of your research question might have changed. Post your research question here as well as a summary of what your argument is going to be. You have books and articles so far, so also discuss what other kinds of information you need to make your argument. Aim for at least 200 words on this one.

Research Question: What are the negative affects of media piracy on piraters? My argument is that although pirating affects the music, film, digital, and/or the electronic industry it also has negative affects on the ones who commit the crime. Despite the bright side of getting the movies and music for free the bad side is that the people who take part in this crime could get locked up for either a long or short period of time, fined, and have a poor criminal record, which could hurt the possibilities of the getting future jobs. I have researched several articles and books that could potentially help me tell what the negative affects are on the people who do this. The kind of information I need is quite simple. I mostly need research that will prove that there are in fact negative outcomes and affects not only to the producers but to the piraters to. I would use sources that explain the type of consequences given to certain people. When I did my Galileo search I found several helpful articles that helps me make my arguments or my point. I did not find more books than I did articles however the books I did find weren't really as helpful to me as the articles were in my opinion.
