Now for an even better question. You say you owe money, but if it wasn't for downloading it, how much would you have bought of that stuff. I think in my case it would be 0,01%... maybe.

I am in school and work on the side. After paying for food, housing and other necessities I have pretty much about 0$ left each month + I owe money to the bank. So that RIAA calculator isn't that good. It said I owed +$50.000

Satellite how is that working for you?
Does it go out on you every once and a while and you have to get it redone to receive the channels again. I was thinking of getting one like that but wondered how often it happened

01-28-2008, 06:23 PM

Seen as were basing this on the non pirated industrys prices and also considering some of the warez need repacks, propers or even real propers, Compensation for such things id say im owed about £10000 :naughty:

01-28-2008, 07:18 PM

now substract the costs of your internet connection, power supply, hardware (especially harddrives, cdrs and dvdrs) and the time spent on the internet trying to dig that all up. including all the never used shit, fake downloads and baaaad quality. and then look what u were able to keep and what did not vanish over the years.

its the fun u cant compare to anything u can buy with money i think.

Vercors

01-28-2008, 09:27 PM

If I had paid for everything I would have bought, then it would have cost me something like 100€.
To answer the thread starter's question, maybe around 30000€

Lostdemon Only time problems happen with the sat is when the codes change every day or every week but new codes are often put up in a matter of minutes. Stuff that works regularly such as german premier, upc hungary have an auto updater key so no problems at all there. Or problem may occur when the encryption is changed on the package prodviders end then you lose everything but this does not happen often because it costs the provider millions to send out new cards and get the appopriate space needed, good example of this would be nagra1 nagra 2, and now romors of nagra 3 for spain tv and portuagal tv cabo and tequalia it was hacked for a good amount of time then they moved to nagra 2 and it was cracked in a matter of months and worked for a good year or so. once one things goes it is often then replaced by something else so there is always something to watch in english. 1000s of channels i love it best bit of equipment i have brought since my cable black box theres ups and downs but always somethng to amuse the family

I don't like the music calculation. How the F should i know how long every album i've downloaded is? A number in gigs that includes the average size of a dl song would be better.

How much have I pirated? I'd tell you but i think the man is watching me. I'm freaking out man. I knew i should have never went to that piracy calculator site....

Maybe the Question should be.

If there was no P2P, how much of what have downloaded with P2P would you have bought/payed for.

I bet its not millions. lol

Put this way, I probably would have felt obliged to spend something like $1,000 on certain movies, tv boxsets and music cds that I wanted to check out.

stoi

10-21-2008, 09:01 PM

$1,000 in how long?

put it this way thats 10 PS3 games in the UK.

Not a lot is it.

Over 5 years I would have probably spent, tbh i have no idea, all the games i have on originals, i have and those i havnt i would not have bought anyway, same for movies, im happy to see it when it comes on TV, sod the pictures or DVD, suppose thats why im not arsed about pre-times.

Music im not that much into, so radio just to listen to it, if that.

TV box sets, i would have watched when it was on, and not had to buy a silly boxset, saying as though they are free towatch anyway, why buy them later just because they are on a shiney disc (i have never understood, TV Boxsets being so bloody expensive lol)

If anything i would have probably saved money, because i would not have bought.

HDTV
360
PS3
Wii
XBOX
PS2
PSP * 2
NDS * 2 (most of the above are xmass presents for my kids btw, but they would have been cheaper xmass`s lol)

Its just with the record industry saying we loose $250bil a year, its bullshit, just because someone downloads something, does not mean they would actually buy it if they couldnt download it.
