Piracy It's a Crime! Perhaps NOT SO????

Why is it that every DVD we BUY, we have to be served with a warning for something WE DID NOT DO to begin with???

If you paid for it, then you AIN'T A PIRATE!

They say Piracy is bad. Well, the fact is because of Bittorrent users in the UK, and with a little help from Sky, Battlestar Galactica got a huge endorsement by word of mouth and lots of file sharing, and became one of the most viewed shows on American TV.

Perhaps the distribution model we have nowadays is out of sync with reality?

Real player will lets you download youtube vids. If you mean the background behind the text parts, that was a simple effect of widening horizontally and softening the same video.

I would download a car.

[a5e26]

i think downloading movies should be legal for personal use only

[unholyjebus]

@a5e26 I disagree. End of story. I WIN!

Guybrush Threepwood is a pirate tell the MPAA pmsl.

[ZeBlackCat]

Ironic that this shows only on legal copies, pirated copies don't have these annoying ads.

good movies sell regardless of pirating. The only reason companies throw a pissy is because they can't make crappy films and still make money of them.

Do what you want 'cuz a pirate is free, you are a pirate!

[kaflunker]

i wouldnt have bought the majority of my online products if i didnt pirate them first. The good things get bought, because I support good developers and producers. The bad things get deleted, and whoever made it doesnt lose a sale because I wouldn't have bought it in the first place without trying it.

How did you get the back ground thats similar to the video's?

Plz reply ASAP

Thanks

okay selling copies is a crime. Sharing might be a crime. Stealing is maybe a crime.

but why the fuck would downloading be a crime ?

[dignifiedaction]

@a5e26 I'd add all other non-commercial use too.
