Re: Old enough to know to go to Pirate bay to get free music said by ITALIAN926:yes, youre right. When Aunt Sue gets sued for $5000, Im sure the first thing she does when she gets home from court is ilegally download another copy of The Twighlight Saga. The first thing she does is call one of her techie friends, relatives, etc, who after making fun of her for an hour or so for being an idiot, tell her that for under $10 a month she can get a VPN account and really "stick it" to the industry. |

Determined pirates will continue to pirate, most of them already use VPN's, proxies and/or other means to stay our of copyright police cross-hairs. Those who buy stuff legitimately will probably think "Oh my, if I did pirate, this could have happened to me!" But that's like preaching to the choir. A few noob pirates would probably think twice before torrenting stuff though. -- Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies...
