A game is an idea, and its value is the ability to experience it. You don't suddenly lose the experience of the game when you sell it. Not only do you give someone else the value of the idea, but you make money off of it. It's in fact worse than piracy. You made money off the developer's idea, and in the same swift stroke prevented them from getting any money. Your ability, or lack thereof, to understand this is astounding. |
Ok, this is sorta dumb.
A car gives me an ability to experience it's value as I enjoy my trip through the mountains. I use it for no other purpose (many rich people do this). Selling the car I don't suddenly lose the experience of the ride when I sell it. Not only do I give someone else the value of the experience, but I make money off of it. I made money off of the manufacturers idea (enjoyable sports car) and in the same swift stroke prevented them from getting any money.
Anyone who sells anything they did not make with their own hands is preventing the original creators from making money. Just remember to stop buying products from retailers (or any middle man), and stop using dumb analogies to justify piracy or argue that they must support piracy if they support selling the rights to something they bought.
