No, I got that. But I just take offense that this is an excuse to pirate something. They do sell copies in stores still and, especially for someone so technically inclined, it'd be pretty trivial to get to the right site. That said, it's still super messed up that they're preventing a guy who wants to buy something from actually buying it but the whole thing came off to me as "edge cases like this is why piracy is okay".
