    what if you had enuf money to buy whatever software you wanted legally, would you still remain a pirate?
    Some people would say that of course they would...while some others may say being a pirate is cool

    anyways, what are ur thoughts?

    Edit: Ah if you put it that way than yes, I would still pirate. I hate the idea of paying for something when I can get it for free. Maybe I'm just used to downloading illegally for so long.

    If I had enough money to buy anything I'd still probably download sometimes because I CBA to wait for Amazon to ship the movie/app to me .

    There are many things I like so much that I end up buying (if I can), while others I don't like much, but if I had the money I would still buy.

    I like the idea of "supporting" those works I really enjoy.
    I don't know but I still think that if you like a game/app/OS or whatever and you have the money to spend on buying it, you should do it... before everybody decides to become a pirate! =/

    I would become a law abiding citizen for most of the cases. Sometimes, you need to download, e.g. when a DVD of a great movie comes out through the scene before the retail date.

    If I would have had enough In the first place I would have never downloaded anything In the first place.
    and with most people I would consider It to be the same.

    money isnt a factor for me, i like downloading shows so i can watch them whenever i want and commercial free, also i actually prefer watching tv on a computer screen. most importantly though downloading stuff is a lot faster and easier then paying for them.

    I would probably continue my pirating behaviour regardless of how much money i had. It's a matter of convenience and availability. I can have whatever i want, whenever i want in a very short time. It has nothing to do with being cool or demand to have everything i want for free. The problem is that there aren't legal alternatives for alot of stuff, like for example movies.. Maybe i would buy licenses for some software.. but movies, no. i mostly listen to music legally now though, thanks to spotify.
