Censoring the Music Industry

This article suggests the use of ratings as a form of censorship. Although the dealings are not specifically geared towards online video streaming, they still focus on websites online, especially those that deal with music videos. Therefore it’s extremely close to instant streaming. The article warns the reader that there should be ratings on certain music and music videos. This is on the basis of words used in the songs, clothing the singers are wearing, and the manner to which they are performing. This is an important idea to be brought up because the same idea can be thought of in terms of video streaming. Should there be mandatory things that should automatically be censored? We will address this along with what this article says about their feelings on mandatory censorship on particular types of videos. This article will be extremely helpful to us on the fact that we can better understand the feelings behind why certain things have a basis to being censored and for what age groups.
