I used to be a huge pirate when i was younger. I used to pirate software, including windows. I dont anymore, i use Linux now. I used to pirate music, i dont anymore, i pay for spotify, i even deleted my gigs of MP3's. I used to pirate games, i dont anymore, i rent them from lovefilm instead. (UK version of Netflix) Same goes for movies. I still download TV shows, but i dont really view that as piracy anymore since i can get all the shows via BBC iPlayer, 4OD, Youtube TV Show section etc. (UK versions of Hulu). To me, piracy was just the phase of the internet dragging the old media industry kicking and screaming into the new era. Sure it still goes on, but piracy forced innovation in my eyes, which on the whole, i consider a good thing.
