Justify it anyway you like.
Have you seen the adverts at the start of DVD's?
Says exactly what I am saying - piracy is theft.
You are getting something that you are not entitled to, which should be paid for, that to me is the very definition of theft.
Who said I was justifying it?
I'm just saying they are different offenses, one much more serious than the other. Hell I've seen those ads at the start of the DVD's, ads at the theatres, they compare grand theft auto to downloading a movie.
They are ADS, do you believe everything you see in the media? the ADS are thrown to us by the MPAA, they are the most money grubbing bastards in the universe. The ads are bullshit because 1) it doesn't follow the legal definition of stealing, like I said before, according to the law, it is copyright infringement. 2) it doesn't follow with the dictionary definition of stealing.
You say that if you get something that you are not entitled to, which should be paid for, that is stealing. Well, every single person I know, according to you, is a thief. Even though I only know of two people who have actually stolen shit from shops, you are comparing all of us like them. Good one.
