PrepTest 68, Section 3, Question 5
Editorialist: Many professional musicians claim that unauthorized music-sharing services, which allow listeners to obtain music for free, rob musicians of royalties. While it is true that musicians are deprived of royalties they deserve, music-sharing services are not to blame since record companies, publishers, managers, and other intermediaries take an inequitably large cut of the revenues from music sales.

The reasoning in the editorialist's argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that the argument
concludes that one party is not blameworthy merely because another party is blameworthy
attempts to promote a particular behavior simply by showing that many people engage in that behavior
attacks a position based solely on the character of the people who hold that position
tries to show that a position is false simply by pointing out an undesirable consequence of holding that position
treats a necessary condition for blameworthiness as though it were a sufficient condition for blameworthiness
