Ever Felt Not Guilty For Downloading A Game?

[Angelus!]

I'll occasionally feel guilty for downloading stuff, but in my case I normally wouldn't even fork over the cash to buy it to begin with. That doesn't justify it, but it's the truth. Like someone else mentioned though, pirating a genuinely good game from a small developer or a developer you support (Say something like Minecraft or a game that was localized) makes me feel incredibly guilty, as indie games don't have huge corporations backing their development and bad sales of localized games might prevent further games from coming over, which is no good.

Indeed...thats pretty much the only time I ever buy PC games...Small developers do create good stuffs sometimes, and this ones really do need support. buying their games make em happy and confident enough to make other great games... Downloading pirate copies from these small developers could make em shut down their business, therefore possibly shutting down future projects, future great games....

But the BIG developers? fudge em...I mean, they rip-off everyone with their overpriced stuffs, and dont freakin care about it... Plus they re-release the same stuffs over and over again, with small changes, but it cost almost twice the price of the older...

Music, on the other hand, is something I feel incredibly guilty about pirating. Especially considering the state of the music industry right now. It's not the record labels I care about, as they're just as much to blame as piracy imo, but rather the individual artists who get hurt by it.

mmm... I'd say I used to feel guilty before... but nowaday, music is pretty much ALL about money... music used to be good, used to be something singers did because thats what they liked to do, music was their life... Singers loved their fans, loved the message and emotions they could pass on with their songs.

Most singers today, just care for popularity and fame and money. Thats why almost every music from today suck out loud.


PS. Of course their are many artists who are great, and are not like that.... And this ones have my full support, just like the small game developers
