Only 20% of software in US pirated, lowest % in the world.

Woo Twesterm with almost exactly the response I expected. Dude, it's the lowest in the world. Maybe you need to reevaluate what your definition of "stupid high" is. I can't even imagine what sorts of adjectives you'd use for the likes of Zimbabwe, Armenia, Georgia etc. with their 90%+ piracy rates.

 

10 people got killed in constuction site A because someone messed up and 100 people killed in contruction site B because someone made the same mistake.

Yes, many more people died in B but the amount that died in A is still stupid high.

I know that piracy is higher in the other areas but 20% is still a really high number.  Just because NA has the lowest number does not mean that the number is an acceptable amount.

Your analogy is not in tune with the article. It states the US's 20% equals more lost revenue than any other country. Here's how the analogy should go:

20 people out of a construction team of 100 are killed in an accident. 20% of the team is dead.

8 people out of a construction team of 10 are killer in an accident. 80% of the team is dead.

Which is the worse tragedy?

 

 

It's also worth noting what NJ5 just posted....
