| DrDread said: People don't mind paying for games, the industry just needs to realize that games are NOT worth what they are trying to sell them for. Its the same thing with music. A CD of music is not worth $20, it's worthmaybe $5. Game and Music Studios make enormous profits when they should be eating cereal for dinner like the programmers and writers they have deeloping their products. People are happy paying $1 for a song if they can search for it easily and get it in a straight MP3 version without any BS involved. unfortuantely no "legal" carrier really does that and you have to go to Russian Pirate sites or download them for free. It's ironic having to go to a pirate site and pay $1 for a MP3 song when I would rather gone to a legal one but CAN'T. The industry is competing with "free" and they had better lower their prices or go the way of the Music industry. |
There are people who would continue to pirate even if games cost as little as a penny.
Games are worth whatever people are willing to pay for them. Pirates enter the equation very little.
