I'm reading the comments below about losing potential customers, money, etc. I agree with both sides to a point, I only pirate because I can't afford it, i'm trying to get a job right now but it is very hard, so since I can't I pirate it, my intentions aren't to hurt the company, I merely want to use the product, if I had money to pay for it I would but I don't. Also by pirating the product I am also providing potential popularity for said product, not necessarily directly but indirectly because I talk about the product with friends, family, etc. So in a sense it is wrong and good just like everything else, everything in life is a double edged sword.

I prefer to support the bands I listen to. Oh and It's more like someone was gonna buy your car but then they got a identical one for free.
seeing as this is getting a few thumbs i think it would be a good idea for me to pirate this
so pirate didn't go around stealing boats and gold they made copies of it
thanks for clearing that up for me pal

I have destroyed this argument a million fucking times, yet retards still sprout this.
Use the aviation industry as an example. By using their plane are you "Taking the original", nope. But do you still need to pay, yes. The producers have set costs with these things. It doesn't cost them more to let others use it. They could let 150 people on, and it wouldn't cost them a cent. But if they want to cover their set costs, then yes, they do need to charge.
Pirates only take into account the fact that copies do not cost the producer. Totally ignoring the development and investment that went into it.
Thumb me down all you want. I'm just letting you know that you are all retarded for letting something so stupid reach the top

Piracy isn't that bad and they know it. If it was they'd have stopped it by now. Seriously like. They could stop it if they wanted to, James Cameron spent like 600Million making avatar, and then tries to tell us the industry is being crippled by piracy? FUCK HIM AND FUCK YOU TOO

Really? And what's happened to you then? Or do you not download? Fact is, it's the uploaders who are breaking the law. Not the downloaders. If you're gonna comment on something do a bit of research. Uploaders are sharing. sharing = piracy. All they can do is ask the ISPs to identify and disconnect downloaders, which ISPs are refusing to do. Human rights and all that.
