  Re: Re: Re: Why Bother?

  You fail at reading comprehension. How did you read "lazy, greedy and selfish" as "unemployed"? Plenty of lazy, greedy and selfish people are employed, many I expect in quite high paying positions. And where did he mention "producing anything"?
  
  Did you post this comment as a response to some other comment you just made up in your head?

  I watched this video from France...

  Apparently...
  
  I think I saw what must have been a parody video of this game, or at least the ad for it, that was far more entertaining than what I just witnessed.

  Re: Re: Re: Re:

  Even if an actual First Amendment lawyer were to weigh in on this debate, in this comment section, I could bet my right nut that you would argue until you were blue in the face that they were not, in fact, a real lawyer.
  
  None of your posts in this thread have in any way been constructive, only dismissive or argumentative.

  Re: Re: Re:

  You lost me when you said "piracy doesn't actually cost anything." It's awesome that you don't have to include any evidence to back up such an extreme claim.

  
  
  Like the industry provides "evidence" that infringement actually costs something?
  
  

  So here's my rebuttal: piracy costs trillions every year in lost revenues, and leaves millions of artists homeless every year!
