Is piracy a necessary evil?

[Monk]

But there are always kids who live with strict parents or live in disadvantaged homes. So is it fair for them?

I know this is gonna make me sound authoritarian but... entertainment isn't a right, neither are games. If you've read between the lines of my posts you know my stance on Piracy, but you can't justify it by saying "but people can't afford games."

Communist Monk has spoken:

It's a reality and it really sucks, but you will not die if you cannot play the new Halo, or watch the new Bond movie. Odds are if you cannot afford the mediums you enjoy that entertain you, you have much bigger issues you should be worrying about.

Or you're a kid. In which case either learn how to beg or get a rich girlfriend. Or boyfriend. I mean, whatever you want little dude/dudette.
