Have all they kiddies gone back to school or something?!

Anyway... might as well start a topic for discusion.

Companys say that a pirate (read warez kiddie) for the most part (read 98%) would not enter a store, pick up an audio/movie/software cd, and leave without paying.
However they class internet piracy as doing just that.

True, I wouldnt shoplift anything. However, I wouldnt goto the cinema (unless I was with an attractive young girl), or buy a cd/ dvd/software package. Shouldnt the companys just be happy that theyre not losing any financial gain from me, as I wouldnt buy their stuff anyway, however I still enjoy the work theyve put into it.

I mean for crying out loud, what use is incredibly high speed broadband in a residential home useful for? Yes I know theres lots of legitimate uses for 10mbit house hold connections, like getting email, and browsing the net etc... but can anyone on here honestly say theyve never illegally downloaded anything?

I rest my face.

zzzzZZZzzzz
