Using media now as a students is very helpful and convenient. I was talking with some friends the other day about what people did 30 years ago when they didn't have as much access to technology. It would have been so hard to write a research paper because you would have to check out books and read it all to get content. I also recently made an online survey and sent it out to fellow classmates. When they take the survey it will automatically fill out the spread sheet then we can have fast data. 30 years ago people would have to go door to door then calculate all the data by hand.
I feel very strongly about enforcing copyright in today's society. I have personal experience with being an artist myself and I would hate it if people were stealing my work. I am a dancer and I feel that choreographed works should be protected. My high school drill team hired a choreographer to set a piece on us for competition once. After she came and taught us the routine, we accidentally ran across the same routine online. It turned out that the dance she taught us, she copied off you tube. Things like that should not be able to happen and it is so unfair. I haven't always been perfect about asking for permission or citing my sources correctly but lately I have been trying to do better.
