Madonna vs. Paparazzi
In the picture of
the site, Madonna was wearing a black cap, a black jumper, and big sunglasses. She looked normal, but she wasn't OK. On November 7, Madonna got jostled by paparazzi in Heathrow Airport in London. At that time, she was holding her 1-year-old adoptive son, David from Malawi. Fortounately the baby was OK, but she had a bruise on her cheek. And paparazzi took pictures of her.
Paparazzi always follow famous stars. I think paparazzi can take pictures of famous stars. But if they hurt someone in order to take a picture, it is absolutely wrong. Like Madonna, celebrities can be hurt by aggressive paparazzi. Celebritie's privacy can't be protected, but they should be physically protected from paparazzi's actions. Therefore, the actions of paparazzi should be restricted by law, I think.

Npaster.com
I visited the most famous music-sharing website,
Napster.com. You could download mp3 files before, but now you can't, because downloading music without payment is illegal. You can find all the musicians whom you're looking for. You can see their music and their biographies. And you also listen to their music if you are registered. Just listening to the music is allowed in Napster.com. And also you can buy songs or albums.
There days due to the advanced internet technology, illegal downloads have widely spread. This occurs many other countries, especially in Korea. In Korea, the internet uses could easilly download music which they want to listen to a few years ago. But now you can't listen to full- versioned songs in almost all the Korean music websites. But I think illegal downloads still exist. It can't be stopped. This is a trend. Singers should find other ways to earn money like concerts.
