I think downloading music from the Internet without permission is wrong because it directly and intentionally violates copyright law. This law was made for a reason. Artists work hard to make music and no one would make a living from it if it were all free. Just like a painting, music is art and is meant to be shared through sales. People are meant to buy what they're interested in, not steal it. This way, the buyer is happy with their purchase and the artist makes a living. Downloading is stealing and takes money away from the artist.
