[QUOTE="warh0g, post: 128601, member: 1937"] Piracy of software and music is a luxury problem. There are actual problems in the world that needs fixing rather than preventing people from downloading music. Jeez, I get so fed up with this BS. Copyright infringment and so called theft of luxury items for the western world is getting too much resources, fix real World problems instead of this bs. That being said I purchase all my music, games and software. But I still find this totally ludicrous. And 90% piracy on PC, where does this fact come from? And as allways 1 download does not equal 1 missed sale, just because some one downloaded a game, song or movie does not mean that they ever would buy it. You can argue the moral part about it, but you can never say it is stealing. If companies want people to buy their product it is quite simple: Create a good product that people want to purchase and do some god damn math. Is it probable that a game that cost 500 million dollars to produce will break even? If the answer is no, go back to tbe drawing board and figure out a new business model. End of rant. [/QUOTE]
