Ethics is the question of right and wrong. We are taught from a young age that plagiarism (copying other's work) is wrong. One might say, it is like cheating on a test when you burn a CD copy of someone else's music or game. However, most people don't associate copying of songs, games, videos, etc. as being wrong. Just because it is easy and hard to get caught does not make it right. The rights of the creator must be protected if we are going to be a society that is creative and inventive.
"Besides providing access to hundreds of thousands of media works that can be used to augment the creative process, the Creative Commons offers a legitimate way for students to license their own creative works, be they audio, video, text or hybrid products."
