I'm going to agree with the cap'n here with the lighter sentences for people acting like real pirates. Actually...can we all dress up and act like pirates just for the hell of it? Come on, we've all downloaded something before.Cpt_Oblivious said:I'm gonna have to agree with Sam here.Major_Sam said:I find downloading a movies/songs/games for your own private use too common to be counted as a punishable crime. But when you make many copies and sell them for a huge profit, that's when I think something should be done about it.
I also think pirates should recieve lighter sentences if they dress talk and act like real pirates. For example...
But back on topic, there is a huge difference between downloading something for free for just yourself with no money involved and selling copies to make money. There will always be people buying geniune copies so the music/film/game industry won't die.
To me, buying a geniune copy is good, downloading the neutral aspect while selling is the naughty part. (If I'm not making sense, I'm tired and sorry)
