Subtle distinction, but actually pretty huge. I agree with you. Companies also use this to say that pirating is stealing, when they never had the business in the first place.
Exactly. I’m pirating because I can’t afford to pay hundreds of dollars each month to watch all the movies and shows that I do. If I didn’t have the opportunity to pirate, I still wouldn’t afford it legitimately…
Uhm. I don’t have a big picture view to claim yay or nay on this one but it seems like if everyone did that we wouldn’t have any entertainment at all. With only small wealth in entertainment, we would only have indie low budget movies and shows, too.
I dunno. It’s a pros and cons situation, for sure.
It’s also a great way to demo games and other software if you can afford it before you waste money on something that has no value to you. This is especially useful when you’re on a tight budget.
And the 7-day free trian totally will not become a 2 year subscription which costs more to cancel than keep, and the price will not be 3x the sticker price had you just gotten to the “buy” option. We’re a legit business!

Yeah. If piracy wasn’t an option, I just wouldn’t play those games.
So many games I have pirated that I have yet to play because there aren’t enough hours in the day and I don’t want to spend them all gaming.
All the money you give these corporations will be used against you someday.

So close.
You should be pirating even if you can afford it because pirating is a tool to help reduce the disparity in wealth.

Just put in your credit card for the 7 day trial! Totally easy to cancel, pinky promise
