| By no means are the laws flawless but at what point does one draw the line between it's ok to download it for nothing vs paying for it? I can understand why many do it. Sometimes the prices can be crazy especially in the smaller markets, but when some come up with "well I wouldn't have bought it anyway " as an excuse to steal bugs me. If you were interested in it enough to download it why not check rewies ask your friends try and rent it or a demo, wait to see if the price drops or if you can find it used. But to blatently say never means you probably shouldn't be playing it in the first place. |
This doesn't make much sense to me. Surely there are things you wont try on your own dollar? Now how many of those things would you try for free? I tried carrot cake flavored ice cream today for the first time and ended up buying a pint all because someone asked if i would like to sample it.

But when you copy you aren't just trying it not on your dollar you are taking the full thing. It's not like you tried the demo or rented it first you stole it to start with.

Compeletly true. I read your comment to mean that just because you were not willing to pay for something, you had no business playing it. I only meant that many people are up for trying things that they dont have to risk there own money to look further into. Once they have tried it, well then they are in a much better position to make up their mind. This applies to ice cream and to games imo.
