My view is this is a form of piracy and those doing it are breaking the law I accept that. But if someone downloads thousands of pounds in copyrighted material per annum are they doing anything moraly worse ? I do not think so. Its a petty crime yes its a crime I just do not understand some peoples views on it

To pay your way legally means everything blanket no illegal mp3s no illegal video games no illegal movies no pot smoking or other recreational drug and so on. Someone getting heavy about a petty crime like this has to live an unblemished life or they run the risk of at the least preaching double standards
Q do you own any copied cds/movies/games without owning the original? I do therefore if I was to judge the cable theif then id be a hippocrite

Hand on heart I can say that I have none of the above as it's not in my makeup to have anything that has not come to me by honest means. It's not that I'm wealthy, just that if I can't afford something then I will either save up for it or go without.
LOL I have even stayed on the bus passed my stop so that I could pay for my ticket when they used to have ticket collectors, the fact that my friends got off and saved the bus fare was their choice but not an option I was happy to take myself.
