[QUOTE="JPelter, post: 127956, member: 623"] I can only speak from personal experience, but the primary reason I don't even consider pirating anything these days is that with Steam and to some extent other digital marketplaces around the convenience of buying things became higher than copying them illegally. I admit to having pirated some things back in the 90s when I was a dumb kid and it was hard/expensive to find things in good old Finland on the up and up. These days I just open steam and click on some things a few times and I have whatever at better than torrent download speeds and none of the hassle (and a clean conscience). If anything is going to kill piracy it's that some companies have finally figured out that if you actually make it easier to get the games legitimately most people will do so even ignoring ethical/legal considerations.
