Piracy isnt theft. Its copyright infringement. While both are crimes, one is a crime due to the fact that we live in a society controlled by the wealthy.

 

I couldn't agree more with this statement.

 

The funniest are members who claim that pirating is taking food from game develepors mouths. Those poor lads hardly see any money from game sales. They get their pay, which may rise (or they get a promotion) depending of the success of the company(developer). The company takes the extra amount of the money the game earned them, which is again a small fraction of what the publisher puts in his pockets. And then again, that is a small fraction of what the games store puts in their pockets. Can you say unfair wealth/profit distribution?

 

 

Very much so, only it is actually worse with most musicians. The Mixers get paid more than the talent!
