You guys seriously either a) Don't know what you're talking about or b) Are just being silly.  You make it sound as if the people committing software piracy in poor nations is representative of the general population there.  The guys making $5 a day isn't the same as the guy with the high powered gaming PC pirating the latest Call of Duty game.  Give your head a shake.

Furthermore, if you're going to make the claim that "Piracy doesn't harm software sales" it's not our job to do the f*cking google search and other research to prove it for you.  Provide some evidence to back it up.

thats what i'm saying.  i'm saying he is being retarded by bring up these super poor people in africa or wherever that are making basically nothing.  they aren't pirating games to play call of duty 6.  hell if i look at all my so called gifted friends that have sooo much money and should be thanking god every waking moment, there are only 3-4 of them that even have a computer that is able to play call of duty 6 any good.

 

these what was it 3 million or something pirated copies of cod6 on pc are all b poeple that can easily afford to buy the game.  some of those 3 million yes indeed bought the game later.  but anyone who says pirating is good is stupid.  there are way more that would have bought the game but pirate it instead than there are that pirate the game to just TRY IT and then later buy it. 

 

anyone on this site that pirates is a crook.  if you ahve time to sit around and argue with other nerds about game sales and other fanboy things then you can find ways to afford a game.
