Which is why we have wikipedia and lots of news sites, all of which you can access for free! You can also look up a synopsis of Deadpool for free, thereby giving you all of the information. There's no reason to pirate it except 'I want it and I don't want to pay for it.'

There's no reason to pirate it except 'I want it and I don't want to pay for it.'

Well now, that's just patently untrue.

"I want it and I can't pay for it" alone is another reason. Then there's "I want it but it's not available in a language I can understand" "I already own this but I'm too lazy to dig up the physical copy of it/it's on another computer/etc" "I want to make a GIF and it's easier to download an ep than rip one from my DVD" and it goes on and on.

I want it and CAN'T is not justifiable, there are other entertainment options for you. Language barriers fall under my understanding of things that aren't available in your country so we are agreed there, and I can understand if you already own it. Wanting to make a GIF is not justifiable, unless, again, you already own it.

So you're saying if you're a monolingual English-speaker in Japan and can buy a manga in Japanese there, but not in English, it's okay to pirate the English version online?

I can understand if you already own it.

Well there you go. There's more reasons than just "I want it and don't want to pay for it."

I don't consider any piracy to be ok. In that sitution, the ideal solution would be to purchase the manga and then download the translation.

Fine. I amend my statement to 'There are no reasons to pirate something you don't own if it is available in your area/language, besides 'I want it.'

Cool, we're making progress.

Yep. I'm not completely heartless. Although I'd rather support the idea of making everything more readily available for purchase in subtitles in all countries.

That being said, I DO think media is overpriced these days. I get why people pirate, I just don't think it's acceptable.
