Illegal downloading and mapcore

[sarge mat]

I pay for all my games and what little films I watch I will pay for but have downloaded a few. A bit of software too as no effort is made to price it towards consumers for some products. TV can be a mix but I do get a lot of seasons on DVD.

Get all my music on Spotify now and buy a few track's that I REALLY REALLY like.

That said about games the shit DRM makes me think sometimes. I got Dragon Age on disk because it cost less than steam and thought about getting an illegal copy so I would not need the disk. People who pay get fucked over bad.

steam and spotify made me stop pirating music and games, just waiting for something similar for movies

agreed!

Music: Buy it all, now that proper digital stores finally work as they should. That is, I have free downloads of music included in my ISP subscription at a reasonable price.

Games: Haven't bought a physical game in 2-3 years now. Of the games I actually play though, I buy almost all of them - much love for Steam. Still got some cracked copies laying around for certain games though.

Movies: The good ones I watch in the cinema, the rest I download at shady places.

Games i buy. I download roms for DS tho so i can have all my games on one card.

Programs depends if i can afford them. I try to legal solutions tho. For example i'm still using a legal version of 3dsmax 7 instead of pirating a newer version.

Music i neither buy nor pirate. Spotify and internet radios are my friend.

Movies and Tv-Shows i download quite often tbh. Can't be arsed to wait for a german release and i don't care much for dubbed stuff anyway. I guess i will spent more money on these things when i make the transition to bluray eventually.

games: buy. besides TF2, i mostly use my PS3 for games so i couldn't download them anyway. when i do get PC games, i buy them months later or 2nd hand for about £5

movies: unless i've already seen a film at the cinema and liked it, i download it first so i know i'm not wasting my money if i don't like it. if i do, i buy it, even though most of the movies i've done this with, i've never actually watched the dvd except maybe for special features.

music: most of the bands i listen to these days release their music for free anyway, a lot of them i only even know about because i found their songs for free on last.fm. most of my favourite bands i got into by downloading some CDs and then slowly buying them all afterwards.

lol I'm not gona say I've _never_ downloaded something illegal before, going back 5 years or so, maya was the only thing think I ever really downloaded.

Now I wouldnt though because I've got past the point of needing to prove my work at home (amature etc), autodesk should make the "learning edition" actually be able to export, all be it very simplified options so newbies can use it for game development. Whats the point in learning the tool if you can't do anything with it

Plenty of porn on the net, viewed through sites like youtube and i really don't want to get involved in live streaming websites copyright debate. That being said I actually joined a porn site once, was amazing lol although novely soon wears off.

I buy all movies, software, games, music and I don't jailbreak my iphone etc.

Jeez I guess Chris is going to heaven when he dies.

Nothing wrong with paying for quality porn. It's true that the amount of free porn on the internet is endless. Pay sites still have certain advantages that can be worth the money imo. Who wouldn't prefer HD quality videos over some shitty youtube clone streams? To just name one example.

[Duff-e]

I've thought about buying porn but it feels so dirty in a 70's way. I think I would only do it if a girl was involved in the process

[-HP-]

heh, anyone else actually paid for porn here?

[Steppenwolf]

Back in the VHS days i actualy rented porn regularely.

[Skjalg]

I remember we rented porn on vhs as well when we were kids (like 10-12) and we all sat large-eyed and watched.

Then one dude had to go to the bathroom
