BUT then again the BPI aren't curently going after downloaders but the actual file sharers... (I know in P2P the downloader becomes a file sharer but again that's no justification)

well for games, demos are usually ok but also come out after the actual game, trailers for games are pointless as bad gameplay can make a game worthless (<insert ea sports game here>)

for movies, as said trailers they show the best bits and if the trailer shows all the best bits then the rest of the movie would be crap and pointless to go and pay for. i can't remember the last time i paid to watch or movie (or even downloaded one) they all end up following a generic plot which is usually obvious and boring.

waiting for movies to come onto tv to become free - what difference does it make if someone downloads it then, they still got it for free and the movie company makes neither more or less money.

what about downloading tv episodes? if you miss it on tv for free, why should you be forced to pay for a dvd to watch it in a few years?
