Pirating - this is the only tricky one. If you usually buy 1 game every 2 months, and then decide that you will buy 1 every 2 months and pirate 1 every 2 months then who loses??

...the developer, rental store, second shop, ect still loses.  You still obviously have a want for that game and you're getting something for nothing even if it's above what you normally get.  There's nothing tricky about it.

 

If I owned every game I wanted to own, I would probably have 200 Wii games. I am obviously not going to buy that many. Most I want but would not consider to be worth the price. Life is not a zero-sum game, one person can gain without another losing.

 

I don't actually pirate, because all the people I know that do dl a game, play it for a few hours and get bored and move on to something else, it seems people enjoy games more if they pay for them
