Illegal downloading and mapcore

[Warby]

my time is so rare these days ...

if i deam something worthy of my time it usualy is something where i flat out pay for it up front because i know its gonna be awsome ! (god of war 3 for example).

if i wouldnt pay for something than its also not worth my time !

that simple.

i have a question though does watching a pirated movie at a friends house count as me pirating it ?!

either way the "awsome" movies i see that way i go buy anyway for exmaple i just ordered the fantastic mr-fox, the boat that rocked and ingloriouse basterds blu rays )

and what about a fansub anime that hasnt been released in my country yet ( and probably never will ) is that pirating ?

so basically no i dont pirate anymore periot !

/edit i put my vote under only if it cant be purchased !

[Duff-e]

Nah I don't think there's anything wrong with watching something that someone else pirated.

Never. I buy what I use/see

Yep, I can vouche for that! This mofo pays for everything he uses.

I think the only stuff I download is TV that I can't get because I don't have Sky.

I've still not forgiven Five for not renewing their contract for House and instead buying the Mentalist. What a crock of shit.

Just get all the house DVD's!

I bought it from amazon.co.uk, although it's really retarded that the first 4 seasons have NO subtitles at all and It's 4:3! What the flying fuck...?

A show that it's recorded in 16:9, broadcasted in 16:9, get's sold on DVD on 4:3!

And as for subtitles, I like to watch my movies (and series) with English subtitles, and not having subs, not even in English is kind of an insult for hearing impaired people

They've only just released Season 5, and Sky are 3/4 of the way through Season 6!

The UK DVD releases are in 16:9 though and my missus is slowly collecting them, she gets them when they're <£15 not the ridiculous £45 they charge on release.

Only when it's something that i really need, that's super expensive, like Vienna Symphonic Library.

I haven't pirated a game since I discovered Steam, partly because of how convenient it is, partly because at that time I moved from poor student to poor part-time employee, partly because I got serious about working in this industry. Got me about 160 games on Steam since then, and almost none in stores!

I do download tv series, mostly for my girlfriend cause I don't watch anything these days, but it's just 'cause they're available online before anywhere else, and she still buys the seasons when they come out in stores. I sometimes download a movie, but I try to go to the theater instead when possible (my gf can get cheap tickets with her job). I mostly pirate when I'm not certain it's worth the money they ask for it, and often if it's good, I buy the movie or related material like the soundtrack. I got a few pirated software installed, but I try to rely on free apps more and more instead. I barely download music anymore, and rely on websites like Deezer or Grooveshark. Could say I'm a recovering pirate

Dexter Season 3 hasn't even been released in the UK despite it airing in the US at the end of 2008.

Sometimes when it's hard to find in the legal way.

This.

I listen mainly to underground stuff and finding them in France is very hard. However, when I can purchase music, I do. (especially vinyls)

I also sometimes download things to give them a try, and buy afterwards if I like.

Could say I'm an evolving pirate

or porn

[D3ads]

Tbh there's so much porn on the internet which can be downloaded for nothing, I wouldn't even consider it illegal... others may disagree though.
