No but that is not the Same Downloading Something. You don't stop other people of getting stuff when Downloading

So anything good for only people with money Rolling Eyes


No, but you make it more expensive for those who legally obtain it because they are compensating you for because you stole it. I pay more for stuff because of low life's who steal. **** you if you steal.


No, you pay more for stuff because you live in Australia and we cop the raw end of geo blocking and bullshit regional contracts.

You also pay more because studios are greedy (mates with).

Make stuff available here and at the same prices as overseas and piracy will reduce.
Microsoft caught on about piracy and reduce the price of their Windows OS and basically eliminated piracy of windows. Have a look at Netflix, shaft users in Australia with a cut down version at a higher price and wonder why everyone tries to avoid it and get it direct from the US.

How does "When they charge the same price for a Gallardo as in Italy, I'll pay for mine" sound?


Sounds good.

But if I can download that Gallardo for nothing, I'm there


Exactly. Technology like 3D Printing is going to make issues like this way more complicated.

In some industries it already is. Think of anything that uses small models like tabletop gaming; these models cost a LOT of money, but can be printed for a few cents worth of plastic.

As the tech gets more advanced and cheaper we'll be printing our own bowls, plates and cups, furniture, all the cheap shit we currently get from China. Interesting times.

Netflix and other Streaming Companies does lessen the Reason to Pirate Stuff but not completely as not everything is on them.

I do think also a Non-DRM Cheap Download would also make more people pay and download then just Download


That is why I would think that having a service where you legally download something for a reasonable price each months is where you would do better business.

It's obvious now that people are finding their way around the download bans, so what you need to do is find a way to lessen it even more. You are always going to lose content to downloaders, but if you have a fair way to download and the studios get their money then everyone is happy or happier anyway.

Spot On. Making it more Expensive will make MORE people Pirate the Software.

Netflix is a Great Example how Badly in Australia we are Treated by Big Entertainment Companies Evil or Very Mad

So have something like Apple iShop where you can buy Movies and TV Shows? But you can keep the Files and Not lose them after the Time you Allowed to have it

I hate downloading something that's got foreign language parts and when you get to them there's no subtitles. Usually an easy enough fix, but still a pain. Never downloaded something in totally the wrong language though Laughing

Yep.

I think that if you can download it to your computer for a reasonable price it would assist in the fight against pirates and give the companies their money they so want out of all of this. I mean, people are going to leech off of this there is no real stopping it but for those that wanna do the right thing and purchase it, having this option is the way to go imo.
