P2P File Sharing

            P2P file sharing can be is defined as peer to peer sharing.It is use on social media such as

Facebook,twitter and instagram.Some including myself find very convienant and very interactive.Its 

gives me a platform to connect with my peers.Regularly documents were the big rave of the filing

word.But due to technology and its advances social media wbites have taken full advantage of P2P file

 sharing.Its gives its users the option of sharing their photos immediately after they are taken  File

sharing can be described as distribributing or providing access to digitally stored information.Digitally

stored information can be defined as a typed research paper,a picture or a recorded piece of

material.Once you have stored the file you can also transfer the file.P2P file sharing is  used a lot for

Facebook and other social media sites but people have also used it for students who have online classes

and have to send assignments to professors.

     File sharing over the years has been oven a bad name also.Artiste and record labels alike are not fans of

file sharing because it gives people a chance to illegal share their music and movies.It has affected their

industry the most because it takes away from their profit.Why would a consumer pay $11.99 for a cd

when they can download the same album for free.Most consumers pick downloading the album for free

and therefor the artiste and their record label loose the sale.Illegal downloads count for almost 40% of

lost revenue for the film and music industry.
 
 P2P file sharing will forever be around and most likely will only get bigger and better.The people that

stand to loose the most like the music and film industry need to invent a better way to protect their

music from piracy and illegal sharing.
