Do you pirate?

[Satangel]

Yeah, I pirate, and have done it since I was 10 years old or so.
Manly because it feels good, it's so damn easy and there is so much to find out there.

 

[Thoob]

I haven't bought any music or films for about 3 or 4 years.

 

[Langin]

1. YES
2. NO
3. To try things out.

But I have come to my senses and I will not pirate anymore.

 

[N4RU70 FR34K]

The last time I bought a DS game was 2006

 

[KingVamp]

Even if I was rich and I could buy hundreds of games and other media (music, movies) I would still pirate.

Why buy anything when you can get it for free?

So the people who made those "free" stuff can have the money to keep making them.

 

[Kwartel]

Since I got this vacation job I wanna buy al legal stuff, but I will pile up my money so the devs/ artists have to wait

 

[juggernaut911]

I download seasons of TV shows, applications, and games.
I pirate shows because I don't feel like sitting through commercials and I watch them on my schedule.
I pirate software because I'm not about to drop a few thousand on CS5.
I pirate games to try them out. If I want to get past DRM, I'll buy and DL a crack.

 

[Scott-105]

Well it seems I was pretty much right so far. A LOT of people on GBAtemp pirate lol.

In fact here is my Torrent List for SEPTEMBER:
Phantasy Star Portible 2
Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep
Pokemon Black
Pokemon White
Pokemon Ranger Light Trails
Etrain Odyssey III

The only game that I am going to BUY is HALO REACH because I don't feel like getting banned from XBOX LIVE.

I'm buying Kingdom Hearts, and Halo Reach, I will possibly import Black or White, depending on how good they are.

1. Yes.
2. Yes.
3. To try things out and because I have no job to get money to buy things.

I usually delete things like movies after I'm done with them though.

[431unknown]

1.yes
2.yes
3.for my own personal reasons

I don't believe anyone in this forum or any other for that matter when the say they don't pirate and never have.
Everybody has downloaded something that they didn't pay for and probably should have.

 

[xx_cutie_xx]

I pirate games, music, and programs. I pirate because I don't feel like paying for stuff. Hahaha and I don't feel like getting up to go to the store to buy it. xD

 

[ThatDudeWithTheFood]

Yes Yes and not enough money i like to buy my games but if its a pc game i pirate it.

 

[gisel213]

Yes I do for one reason only... get what you can get and never look back before they shut emu sites/torrent and newsgroups down....

It's only a matter time before that happens....

 

[xxteargodxx]

I do yes, because I'm broke and need to get whatever I can for free.

 

[Forstride]

1) Yes
2) Yes, but not as much as before.
3) Not enough money to buy games I won't play that much (Mainly DS and PSP games). I buy all of my Xbox 360 games, and when I had a Wii, I bought all of my games until I got an external HDD.

 

[0ddity]

1. Have you pirated before?
yes, since 1998

2.Do you currently pirate?
yes

3. If you pirate, why do you?
I pirate things I wouldn't otherwise pay money for, or can't get a freeware version of. I bought my DS, and mario kart ds, but otherwise I just can't justify paying full price for a game I'll probably only play once or twice. On the PC, I buy games that I want to play multiplayer, but if I couldn't pirate, I just wouldn't play most single player games. The only single player game I've ever bought (besides HL/HL2) was Bioshock, and that was like 2 years after it came out.
