THE PHENOMENON!!!!

So you're looking for the latest chart topping songs or perhaps you're looking to make a music compilation for your ipod or CD Walkman. well look no further!! technology has come to your rescue. now you don't have to go all the way to Musica or any other music store to buy an entire album, when you actually just like one song on the album. gone are the days of listening to your favourite songs through the headphones at the music store, or even worse, hearing the song once on the radio then spend most of your days hoping that the DJ will play it again. Nowadays, all we have to do is open a program, select tracks that we like and download them. downloading is a phenomenon that has been occurring for decades. We've all done it at some point in our lives; whether it be transferring photos from a camera memory card to the computer or bluetoothing the latest tunes from a friend's phone. but what exactly is this trend that seems to have taken the entire world by storm? Downloading is the transmission of a file from one computer system to another. To download a file is to request it from another computer (or from a Web page on another computer) and to receive it. i felt it necessary to give a brief definition of what downloading is before any further discussion about the advantages and disadvantages of this phenomenon.
