I really don't understand the whole controversy around piracy. The fact of the matter is, it's a real hassal to purchase and use physical media and the respective industries are spending all of their money suing the consumer instead of listening to what might make them spend more money. Sure the word sounds glamorous if you're a blithering idiot. When someone downloads a torrent, they aren't thinking "Damn I'm like Johnny Depp!" They are thinking "This is so much easier than dealing with 15 FBI warnings and a stack of previews I can't skip before I watch this movie." Think about it: You know the guy selling screeners and movie copies in the subway for $10 a piece? ...the same thing you can buy in the store without all of the copyright notices and advertisements and $30 cheaper. Which one would you rather buy?
