現實生活中的毒品危害有多大，大家都很清楚。可數碼世界的毒品也能害人，你信嗎？最近在美國有不少青少年開始迷戀一種叫做“數碼毒品”的音樂，據說，聽了這種音樂也能讓大腦達到吸食毒品后那樣的興奮狀態。看來，禁毒也要向數碼領域邁進了。

Teenagers use so-called ‘digital drugs’ (music) to change their brains in the same way as real-life narcotics.? |
This is the world of ‘i-Dosing’, the new craze sweeping the Internet in which teenagers used so-called ‘digital drugs’ (music) to change their brains in the same way as real-life narcotics.
“數碼毒品”（i-Dosing）是席卷互聯網的一個新潮流。青少年網民用所謂的“數碼毒品”音樂讓他們的大腦達到很high（興奮）的狀態，就像吸食了毒品一樣。
They believe the repetitive drone-like music will give them a ‘high’ that takes them out of reality, only legally available and downloadable on the Internet.
他們認為那種不斷重復的單一節奏的音樂會讓他們high起來，帶他們逃離現實生活。這種類型的音樂只能通過互聯網合法下載。
I-Dosing tracks have imposing names such as ‘Gates of Hades’ or ‘Hand of God’ which are ten minutes long - some sound like a ship’s horn being repeated again and again whilst others are more abrasive and resemble cheap synthesizers being played very fast.
“數碼毒品”類音樂一般都會取像“地獄之門”或“上帝之手”之類的名字，持續時間約為10分鐘，有的聽著像輪船汽笛不斷重復的聲音，有的則更加刺耳，像廉價音樂合成器快速演奏時發出的聲音。
Not everyone is taking i-Dosing seriously, but since it could indicate a willingness to experiment with real drugs,?warnings have been issued in some parts of the US to prevent children to do it.
?雖然有些人并沒有把“數碼毒品”當回事，不過考慮到這種行為可能會引導青少年嘗試實體毒品，美國一些地區已經發布預警，防止青少年使用“數碼毒品”。
