Life isn't fair. Get used to it.

Oh, I am used to it. The entire purpose of this side track was for me to understand, from you, the mindset of a thief and what makes you tick.
And honestly, your excuses are fairly predictable. Doesn't change the fact that you're a thief. And have no shame about it; in fact - you appear to be proud of the fact.
It's just such a foreign mindset to me. I still don't entirely understand it.

Sales of software at more realistic prices, $30 per item, below 80% of peoples piracy threshold, 80*30 = $2,400 > what they get now
and tbh, if those 80 pirates couldn't get a pirated copy, would they pay 99 bucks to the developer?
Here is a mathematical proof.
1) Software= Paying by lawful people
2) but Paying = Not Used for pirates
3) and Not Paying = Used for pirates
so if you force people to pay (combine 1 and 2), you get Software = Not Used (no extra income)
if you don't force them to pay (combine 1 and 3), you get Software = Used but no extra income.
So logically the only option is to reduce the amount of piracy, through online awesomeness (which is shit with lag in NZ anyway), by making uncrackable copy portection (good luck with that), or by making them cheap enough that people don't bother pirating.

I am actually quite proud of saving myself many thousands of $ by not having to pay for shit. Looks like I'm the real winner here and you're the (financial) loser.

On the other hand, I have a job I love that pays me damn well so I can afford to buy things I want. I don't need to resort to theft to obtain them.I am actually quite proud of saving myself many thousands of $ by not having to pay for shit.

Winners. Losers. It's all a matter of perspective. From my viewpoint you're an unemployed thief missing a few moral benchmarks. Aren't you from South Africa?
Your excuses are amusing though

I've downloaded some expensive games that I really didn't enjoy. I'd feel a bit ripped off if I forked out $100 for a game that I'm only going to play for an hour before I give up on it.

If you were smart enough you'd realise if you had a job that pays well, and still didnt have to fork out to buy things you simply do not need ot pay for. you would have alot left for other things.
i guess there's the difference between the rich and the richer. if you're happy where you are. good on ya. but you are no body to pass judgement on anyone else. if you're happy being a hippie. keep it to yourself. have a think about the pic i posted before. you cant deny that logic

Almost 10 years now. Lank genoeg om die Kaap goed te mis.
That was the problem I had with the first half of your post hence the style of the reply.
