Lets assume you stopped the Illegal copying. After that still music price is same as old time its high until your sales are get higher.  Stopping of Illegal copying does not mean people will start to buy. Of course their will be some in sales, but most of people will go for free media such as radio channels.  So increase in sales will not be  significant increase  to drop prices.  So still  it will be almost the same as  current situation only thing is publicity will be reduced since amount of copies are very low. It usually does not work that way. When we talk about western countries the price of music is high when you compare with Sri Lanka. But how about the income? Its many times SL avg income. So their purchasing power is high and they can afford those prices.  Since cassette is 100/= and CD is 500/=, both have same content. So does media is costly? I think high price tag for CD is bcoz they assume its Luxury item and cassette is 100/= bcoz its poor mans Item. That assumption is correct for few years ago but no longer its correct. I think if you need to make profit you need to take a risk. If someone start to give original CD a less price, say its 100/= most of people will buy it instead of copying. And Still it does not happen you can apply anti piracy laws then definetly people will move from pirated to original stuff instead of going for free media like radio channels.</blockquote>
