Pirated stuff is as orignial and much much affordable than the real one.And whats more theres hardly any difference between the two

Actually, piracy is sometimes a benefit to the artist. I know that many people download music/movies/etc. and never end up paying a penny for it, but some people will not buy multimedia unless they have heard/seen it. I for one have pirated music. If the album is an album I will listen to for more than that one time, I will go to the store and buy it. If I had not heard the music, I would never have bought the music. There exist many people with this attitude, grossing in some extra profit. Now depending on the percentage…most people do not do this…pirating obviously leads to a deficit in profit.

Also, piracy is stealing, however, it is on a much smaller scale than tangible objects. Many people have the idea that commercial industries have so much money that a little stealing won’t hurt. “Stick it to the man” kind of thinking. By pirating music on occasion, the general public can get some of that out of their system.

After reading that, it sounds amusingly ignorant. Oh well, that’s brainstorming.

Because you get to wear an eye patch and say “Arrrrr”
