Most people will never get to own a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California Spider, but I don't think it would go over well if I opened up a car dealership called "Love Stolen Cars".

Should we also fret over the life of a bank robber being ruined when they get caught?  Whose fault is it that they chose not to make an honest living?  There are risks involved when you decide to take short-cuts in life by profiting off of things you have no legal right to.

Oh, your comparisons are just so brilliant. I have another comparison for this situation: It's like a pharma company suing a maker of a generic drug without patent of said company to save lives it in third world countries which are not rich enough to get the original medicine. How evil of the maker of the genric drug and how noble of the pharma company to stop that.

You pirates will justify yourselves to no end won't you.

Your comparison is saving lives from the evil company. (FYI, most of those generic drug makers are actually the company itself. They sell their big drugs to places for cheap and make their R&D money back by charging developed countries more)

You pirates are saving history by making sure that these precious video games don't disappear.

 

Good example: I start selling clothing apparel online with copywrited characters on it. That is what rom sites are doing. They are making a profit off of something that is not theirs to make a profit off of.
