Just something to think about.

Also, piracy only affects those trying to make a sale.

Very incorrect.  In the case of music, the loss of revenue means the artist gets paid less.  In a world where piracy ran rampant, businesses would not come to the market will new ideas because they would get stolen.  When businesses lose money that means people don’t get paid.  Despite the anti-business sediment in this thread, typically when businesses do good, our economy does well.

SIGH...

Then because of alternatives, we have other oppertunities.
