It depends on what kind of angle you're trying to get on it really.

Music businesses would say that the internet is bad because they lose profit from downloads however the general public would probably say that it's great because you can download free music by anyone.

I'm sure there's an argument for and against pretty much everything on the internet, it just depends how you look at it.
