Copyright is necessary but it should not go unquestioned
because, as the above has shown, piracy leads to better understanding of market
behaviour, more innovation and maintains the long-term view for creative
industries.
Attitudes and behaviours may not take piracy with such heavy
weight due to a culture driven by consumer needs. Sometimes ethics aren’t even
associated with pirate activity. Piracy has easily taken a stronghold in
digital culture, and it has brought about benefits for creative industries.
Piracy will continue to forever challenge the creative
industries in new and interesting ways. It will be a testing ground for new
ideas and interaction. The law has labelled piracy as a pesky problem. Those companies
with a more intelligent lens will see it as opportunity, because piracy is good
for business.
