What are your thoughts on unpaid internships?

Growing up, unpaid internships was so normal. I'm pro compensation but I also know of a lot of people who'd be perfectly happy trading an unpaid internship for the experience. Thoughts?

They were super common when I was in college because I was in TV/Film. Unfortunately, because that field is so competitive, people are willing to do anything for free. I wasn't bankrolled by my parents so I couldn't be an unpaid intern after college like so many of my classmates did. Living in LA is expensive!

I own a company and hiring for an unpaid internship is so enticing but I could never get myself to make the no payment route.
