So you deserve them for free because.....? ssjevot posted... Shotgunnova posted... All games are property And all property is theft Except IP isn't actually property because it has no scarcity and no one suffers a loss when you download a copy of the original. The only loss is "potential sales" but those sales are predicated on creating a scarcity that does not actually exist. The lack of scarcity or the fact that a copy doesn't disappear doesn't mean it isn't property. Also, they definitely suffer a loss - the money you owe them for the copy you stole, that you won't pay.

Can't pay can't play There's a clear difference between "I can't or don't want to pay for this game" and "Nintendo literally does not want to take my money because they won't sell me this game even though I'm perfectly willing to pay for it, so I must look elsewhere for it" Capitalism means that a business has a right NOT to sell something they own. If you want it, buy a physical copy. If you can't, too fucking bad - you don't have an innate right to property that someone else owns. As someone who has and likely will continue to pirate, pretending you have some innate right to do it is absolutely fucking asinine. --- 'It's okay that those gangbangers stole all my personal belongings and cash at gunpoint, cuz they're building a rec center!' - OneTimeBen <cite>darkjedilink posted [p:907032056] in Tell us wh...
