Bump for moar votes, I thought the number of people downloading everything would be a lot higher.

That is already the majority xD
And in many countries downloading for personal use is legal, and many others pay for some things they like and download the rest. I think that is normal lol. Strange is paying for everything! xD

I always pay / donate for software that is worth, but I can't imagine to pay for music that otherwise I'd never listen to.

While surfing at Youtube etc, If then I discover a good artist that I like, I don't mind donating to it / going to live concerts etc. But I am not going to pay for a CD, they just rip the artists and the clients.

Depending on where you are from, you might already be paying for music you don't listen to. Some countries have a private copying levy on recordable mediums (cds, dvds, pens, hard drives, etc) which goes to copyright bodies:

I'll just leave this here

When the game detects you're running an illegal copy, it spawns an immortal scorpion which follows you and kills you troughout the game

This is how we should battle pirating, it's a million times harder to crack it + way cooler Cheesy

I don't believe that's much harder to crack (once you know it's there), and though amusing, it's a stupid way of dealing with the issue. You already have millions of people copying software, and if you think that's a problem, you should look into why they are doing it, and address their concerns, not try to keep the status quo at any cost.

So if itunes notices you're playing a pirated copy of "in the end", it will freeze your computer. To unfreeze it, it gives you the option to delete the file.

nah, first 30 seconds is real music, then it just gives you a scream on max volume to scare the shit out of you

rest of audio file is some buzzy sound

Since I've paid for access to Netflix/Hulu, I don't bother with EZTV/torrents anymore.

I'm happy to pay, but not $40 for a DVD a year after it's released in the U.S. Pfft.

I torrent everything, and probably have a notice or two from my cable provider,

but I have never checked my email,  not even once in 5 years.

Torrenting is like having full, free cable, with a 1 hour delay.

The modern world is beautiful.

Why ? Is it illegal to download a file from internet  Roll Eyes .... I've download some .iap and sometimes a couple of songs  .

tell us your file roster to determine if you should be jailed

It isn't always illegal to download things. It depends on what you download, what you do with it and what country you are in.

so certain things can certainly be "more" illegal than other things.

That's true xD

it's a common thing

torrent etc

greater chances of being arrested for downloading child porn than U2's album Songs of Innocence

so certain things can certainly be "more" illegal than other things.
