Do you still pirate music, movies, games, etc?

Mad Max · January 23, 2015, 10:46:24 PM

I seriously can't remember the last time I downloaded something.

I pay for Google Play Music.
I pay for Netflix, Hulu, etc.
I pay for HBO, Showtime, Cinemax.
I buy my games on Steam during sales.

When the price and convenience of service is right, I have no motivation to pirate content.

Still? That implies that I've pirated shit in the first place.

No streaming services available for me, internet is too slow for that anyway. And things take forever to come out on dvd here, so I basically have to torrent things if I don't want them spoiled, or be horribly out of date on them.

I buy my games though.

alphy · January 23, 2015, 10:49:57 PM

no, i buy music through cd's or through itunes, and i guess buy games regularly

i don't do movies and stuff.

Wizard · January 23, 2015, 10:51:17 PM

It's ok. Some people just don't care about audio quality.

The audio quality is fine that way. Besides, I just play songs from my phone's speaker when I want to listen to music.

aMetroid · January 23, 2015, 11:48:59 PM

I'm not sure if I ever pirated something.

Novice · January 24, 2015, 01:25:14 AM

No, I really never did in the first place.

This entire thread is an FBI trap.

Nexus · January 24, 2015, 02:08:18 AM

I don't pirate music.
I don't really care about movies. It all depends on what movie.
I only pirate games that I have owned on a different platform (And even then I have rebought multiple games) or I intend to buy at some point.

Isara · January 24, 2015, 02:15:26 AM

Yes, I do. I am a pirate of the seven interwebs. Yarr.

It's like a face you make when your math teacher tells you your answer is right, but because you didn't do it their way, they marked it as wrong.

Makes sense, since my answer (enjoying music) is right, but my method (not buying HDD++ sound enhanced platinum files) is apparently wrong.

Dude, Youtube is just the worst though. They don't even produce 128kbps. Why? I mean, pirating is better than that method.

Mr. Psychologist · January 24, 2015, 03:46:40 AM

Music - I just listen to it on youtube, buy the CDs later and that's be sorted
Movies - Buy them/Netflix
Games - Buy them, Discs >>> Digital for me

TV shows - Netflix/Crunchyroll tends to cover all the bases, the only thing I do now and then is when say there is GOT airing in the YooEssAy but fuck the rest of the planet for a few days, or use VPNs and shit and I really can't be arsed with all that. I stream it on whatever arsend site has it, then buy the DVDs when they release A full fucking year later in the UK.

If it was accessible/affordable to stream things like GOT/BB (When that was airing) in the UK at roughly the same time as it's airing in the USA then that would cut out the final section. Companies are getting better at the whole... you know... offering their god damn product to the market in an accessible manner .______. but there is still a long way to go.

But if the dictatorship allowed more than 3 games in stralia, would you torrent?

True Turquoise · January 24, 2015, 04:55:52 AM

I like to support the artists I listen to.

BaconShelf · January 24, 2015, 04:56:54 AM

No. I buy my music, an I prefer discs to downloads on films and games.

Mat Cauthon · January 24, 2015, 04:56:55 AM

I do, if I had the money and if everything I want to get was available to me, I wouldn't.
