That distinction 'losing money' vs 'not making money' is useless for IP, which involves almost NO cost in the production of the DVDs/CDs/discs as compared to the cost of producing the IP. This is semantically dancing around pirating, because technically the only money games make are via the IP - when somneone steals a game, the loss isn't calculated as 'we lost that 50 cents the physical disc cost to produce' and more 'we lost another sale which would have paid back the investors for the hundreds of thousands of dollars this cost to produce' and essentially convinces investors that investing a justifiable amount of money on quality products isn't worth it. It damages the entire industry.

THAT IS EXACTLY THE POINT. For heaven's sake, can none of you people read? I stated quite clearly in the beginning that the whole fucking thing was made up of circular logic. INCLUDING my response, which I did that way ON PURPOSE to make a point. It was not meant to be taken as a serious argument, and yet you people keep trying to take it like that.

Jesus fucking christ. People will make wank out of ANYTHING.

Apologies. I've just seen this argument actually used to support piracy so many times it makes my head spin.
