There are many talents in this world,acting,singing, writing,playing music,sports etc.etc.etc. There are different degrees of abilities in these talents,some are great at their talents, some are average, some are not so good. Talents extend beyond the arts into the trades and professions. There are carpenters with different degrees of skills,as there are plummers,mechanics, and any trade you can mention. There are Doctors with different degrees of abilities,as there are lawyers,accountants,teachers,etc.etc.etc.

Now all there people working in their chosen fields expect to be paid and should be paid.It is their livelihood. Those with extra skills will likely be in greater demand and better paid than those that are square pegs in round holes. If we have need for their services, we expect to have to pay them the asking price. But not so if you are skilled in the arts.Though most people need and desire the arts for their entertainment and most people WILL pay to be entertained, but there is a percentage that want it but don't want to pay a fair price for it. Because music is one of the entertainments that is so easily stolen off the net, even though it can be bought at a fair and cheap price, it will be stolen. If I like someone's music I will pay for it,if I don't like it I won't, but I will not steal it. Just as I would not refuse to pay my mechanic for fixing my car.I appreciate his talent and I would hope he would appreciate mine and pay me for the use of my talent and investment if he was to use it. It all comes down to what is fair and just. Thank God most people are fair and just, but there is that small percentage that don't know the meaning of the words. Some of them go on to be criminals but most of them are content to be petty thieves, I guess we can be thankful for that. But the ones that are victims of the petty thefts are still hurt.
