PIRACY, WHY?

I've pirated some music, it's really difficult to get ahold of the bands I really like. So yeah I have limewire...

There you go! I confess, lock me up and throw away the key!
I usually always use frostwire to download free music and videos. For those that don't know frostwire is a more safer version of limewire.
Frostwire blows altogether. It's like kazaa, except it's trying to pretend to be limewire.

I find it to be far better than limewire. Kazaa is pretty shocking as well, i tried looking up a song and it gave me about 30 pages of porn. :P

Yeah Kazaa sucks! I remember using that shit, and I fcked up my Dad's computer. He was so pissed.
To be fair to Kazaa, it used to be the only program to use. That and napster I think, but Kazaa was the better choice of the two.

Limewire is certainly the best peer to peer program I have used, ( I haven't used frostwire, so I can't comment ) but peer to peer has been outclassed by torrent software. Torrent software is safer, easier and a whole lot faster.

Plus, you can find quite rare things on Torrents, that you probably couldn't find very easily on a peer to peer.
I said you must be young because you seemed to not know what democracy or capitalism meant, and you said that Britain wasn't capitalist- which it is.
I tend to not buy shit I don't need, BUT STEALING STUFF I DON'T NEED ON THE OTHER HAND..

I didn't understand the difference between a social theory and a political theory.
I assumed that capitalism and conservatism were the same, the same with democracy and socialism. For someone who doesn't study politics or economics, I think it is a forgivable mistake.
I pirate a lot of music(all of it pretty much), even though I probably shouldn't. As far as games go, I do not pirate anything newer than an n64 game(I buy n64 games usually since there aren't many of them I want.) How about NES and SNES games? There is no way in hell I am going to buy some of the old SNES and NES games off of Ebay for sometimes high prices. Although, if the game is rare then I might buy the cartridge, e.g. Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy VI. I wouldn't use the Wii's VC to buy SNES games for 8.00$ and NES games for 5.00$. That adds up rather quick - and I don't have that much money now to allocate to games. I just pirate a ton of NES and SNES games and play them on my PC with an Xbox 360 controller. Though, as I stated before, I certainly do not pirate newer games. I would share why I think that's unethical but I have class very soon. Goodbye!
