can prepare their own CDs by downloading music from the Internet. And
this has become another problematic thing that has contributed to
increase the piracy.

actions may be a little bit illegal and sometimes reduce the profits

records win a special recognition, which may lead to the hire of them
for shows and (guess what?) profits.
