I have to confess that some of the explanations/justifications/excuses given on this board for illegal downloading are astonishing.
This isn't rocket surgery, folks. Being a have-not never EVER entitles you to become an I-will-take. I don't give a rat's charbroiled arse if a software developer, film maker, musician or anyone else who creates digital content is so vastly wealthy that they live in a manor house constructed solely of the solidified armpit sweat of Fijian virgins. I don't care if you view corporate entities as inherently evil (I view I share, by the way). I don't care if you have issues with packaging that damages discs. I don't give a steaming shit if you object to the price of some of these products. I don't even care about the doubletalk distinction between 'theft' and 'piracy'.
If you take something without paying for it, you're a thief. But I know this sort of thing won't stop. So, enjoy your free entertainment, your illegal cable hookups, and the taste of the petrol you siphon out of your neighbour's car in the middle of the night. It's all the same.
