The guys who pirate the game weren't going to buy it anyway. The company doesn't lose any money AND it gives them free advertisement. But since it's still a crime - i.e. you are going out of your way to break the clearly stated terms of use - you're still absolutely in the wrong. Again, let it be repeated a million times: It is never up to the customer to dictate the terms of use for intellectual property or content. Your only freedom in the transaction is the decision to agree or reject the terms, or at best barter them. You are never in the right for breaking the terms. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z316/CeliaOfTheSky/Pinky0926.jpg <cite>pinky0926 posted [p:877187567] in Pirate log...
