Now adays, we can get all kinds of resources from the internet, ranging from software to musics, even homework being finished. It is reported that these resources will be charge soon, as a matter of fact, now if you found out useful information or material or good movies, when you want to download them free, you cannot do it from the website, attention to you, you should pay for them by visa or cellphone bank or e-bank card and so on.
How do you think of this case? What is your opinion?

Good morning Alex . Yes, it is true that nowadays we get almost anything from internet like movies, musics etc . And more than that we get all these for free which is great . But i usually stay away from internet shopping . If it is free then Ok . But i don't spend a penny on internet . Reason there are many cross-minded cheaters in internet , who can cheat . Also we can't see the product which we are about to buy for example from ebay . So we can't examine the quality . SO we can better buy it from a shop rather than internet resources . It is better and safe to stay away from internet resources .I just notices that you new to mylot . Happy mylotting and have a nice day !

yep, i agree on your opinion partly-we can't examine the quality. But if i live in good circumstance, where the owner provide good software or famous music on the website, i think the owner make many taks for this product, so i think we should pay for them. Example if you want to look for textbook in bookstore,you find out it is expensive for you, then you look for this textbook in the internet, notice to you,you have to pay a little bit money for this e-textbook, do you pay for it?or continue to look for?

Good Morning dear AlexJia , first of all i would like to wish you a warm and happy welcome on Mylot , then now going towards your discussion , i could only say that the fact that The Internet giving all of theses resources for free , it was only to be known that it will going to stay free time that The product they are marketing on the internet , its free time that the product becamed knowned and very usefull , and it was free so people cann test it and make it a daily habbit out of it , and now that it might have a really big number of users ( we cann take for example Megavideo , or megaupload ) at starters these ware free so it cann atract users , and it did brought a verry large number of people on theire site , once they had mad a number and that number made a a dailly habbit out of it , the owners decided to put a price on it , off course the product in cause will still remain free but if you pay for an month or year membership you will get extra features or extra bonuses that free users wont get. So i guess this is only normal , because a website demands allot of work and maintenance , and not everithing in this world is FREE.
Have a nice day dear AlexJia and enjoy your stay on Mylot.

Hi. There are already many things online that charge certain amount of money, such as software, e-books, movies etc. I can fully understand this as the manufacturer has to make a profit too. I usually look for some free resources online and most of them are available out there. But i don't really think that all the online resources will be charged soon. If it really happens, less and less people will make use of internet. Then it is the manufacturers who will lose, not the users.
