Is Downloading Music Legal?
Is Downloading Music Legal?
The answer is yes and no. To explain this simpler, there are both legal and illegal ways to get music. The legal ways would include just using MP3 since it is just a file format.File sharing can also be legal to a certain extent without violating copyright laws. What is illegal is using websites like Napster or Limeware.(which don't exist anymore, but there are derivitive websites like it)Just be wary of these circumstances and if something looks too good to be true then it probably is. If you decide to use the illegal way, there are many fines and penalties that come with it. You may think that your being clever, but in the end your just getting yourself into trouble.Some of the fines can be anywhere from thousands of dollars to over half a million.

Research Project Wrap Up
My favorite part about my project was doing the Power Point and animations with it. My least favorite part was presenting the Power Point in front of the whole class. I learned many things I didn't know about Japan before, like all of the interesting places to visit and how big some of their shopping districts were. Something that was difficult to research on was some of the things to do for the tour palces, a lot of them had the same answers on every site so there wasn't much variation. The strong points in my presentation were all of my tour stops. The weak point in my presentation was the history part. Some suggestions I would have for research projects in the future for Mrs. Fowler would be to choose a state in the United States or to do a landmark thats really important.
