"Yeah, if by some miracle pirating suddenly stopped and became impossible would anyone really believe those people would sit at home with no games, movies, or music and just twiddle their thumbs?

Of course not, they would actually go buy those games they're pirating."

The topic actually should have died here. Since nobody on thee other side can even try to debate it

That s true !
Here is another argument : if when at your job someone told you : "You work, fine. But whether we will pay you or not depends if we want to. Also we may be entitled to take your work and use it, without your permission and without you being paid. We will call this a piracy contract (lol)"... What would everybody say ?

I will still pirate stuff even when I am out of school and working as an attorney making a $50,000 salary. I am used to not paying for stuff and I plan on keeping it that way, and I understand that most of the money I spend is not helping people, just corporations.

 

That's funny that you would reply that. I am actually a lawyer in my country.

 

What I want you to understand is that these so-called corporation are, indeed, people. Not an entity, not a virtual living, it's just people working together
