-Why I Pirate- Is piracy justifiable?

To me it is. I've set up rules for myself:
- Never pirate anything indie
- Only pirate what you know has been a financial success, or is certain to achieve financial success.

E.g pirating Call of Duty or Transformers gives me no feeling of guilt since I know they'll make billions anyway. If pirating suddenly started to significantly hurt these products, I won't pirate them.

Personally, I hardly ever pirate games, it's just too much work for me. 

If pirating Transformers was significantly hurting it, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Michael Bay has to stop raping my childhood.
