Stealing and Video Game piracy isn't the same thing so your analogue is incorrect.

By stealing you are actually taking something away, depriving someone of something they have. By Video Game piracy, you are taking a POTENTIAL sale away, so a more correct analogue would be to buy or make your own Ferrari kit car clone than to buy an actual Ferrari.

Ferrari has lost the potential sale and you have a /similar/ product.

Its not perfect, but its more correct than yours.

You're actually stealing, stealing profit from developers and publishers for working their asses off for months or even years to get a game done well.


By that logic, for every product on the market I haven't purchase, I have stolen profit from the producer.
