How exactly is this comparison relevant? I never argued it wasn't theft. Your intent has nothing to do with estimating how much money (or potential sales) someone has lost. John Smith has lost a thousand dollars either way. It's much harder to estimate how much money a musical group has lost if 31 people downloaded their album.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
That's 31 people who have no reason to spend money on the album now, plus however many people they send the file to.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, and what makes you think they would have spent that money otherwise? Don't think I'm condoning this practice; I'm only offering a reality check. 31 downloaded albums does NOT equal 31 lost sales, period. It's very hard to estimate how many sales are actually lost, because most people would never have bothered buying the album in the first place -- but if they can download it for free, why not?

Making excuses is as bad as condoning.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL. My bad, I didn't realize that being realistic about how the world works = making excuses.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
lol that's now how the world works moron

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
How is that not how the world works? Do you really think that, in the absence of piracy, everyone who liked a couple of songs from a band would go out and buy the band's album(s)?

Why don't you indulge me and tell me what the point was, then?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Well then, thanks for teaching me the error of my ways, Enlightened Anon!

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
What an utterly moronic comment.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
U mad?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
U able to express yourself without using memes?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes but clearly other people in this thread can't seem to grasp any idea more complicated than that, so I figure I'd try to speak their language. And hey, it worked, I have made contact.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-15 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Have you? Where are they?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
