Do You Pirate/Torrent

m0nk3ys1ms · 05-09-2008, 12:39 AM

Yes. I torrent music occasionally, as well as some software such as Alcohol 120% or Partition Magic, something I'll use for 5 minutes and then uninstall again.

Wow you are all getting in trouble very soon!! Saying that you torrent is bad enough but to say you download tv shows and music? Im sure a mod is watching this one!

Haha yeah, I find myself doing the same thing. Anyways, do I torrent occasionally...although not to much anymore. (My conscience is getting the best of me)

I hope you do understand that saying you torrent doesn't mean it's illegal. Programs like Linux, and other big third party software developing companies that run on donations, use torrents as their main reliable source of distribution. There are loads of legal torrents out there for people to download, from home videos, to third party softwares, and while there are illegal one's too, we are not discussing how, where, through what means, or in any way saying illegal torrenting is good.

I don't really see any reason this thread would be deleted.

I didn't vote, and what I do on my Personal Computer is Personal.

And we have had threads that looked and were perfectly legal, and resulted in getting closed, and infractions issued due to where the conversation led.

which is illegal

I put no, because I have no need to pirate and have legit software from work. I have blockbuster online so I get DVDs in the mail all the time and I play my console more than my PC so I don't buy a lot of PC games.

That's perfect.

Just the fact that the Subject has a word that is most likely an illegal act is enough for this thread to be locked.
