Without getting into my politics,
There are some entertainment companies that have expressed their support for certain social issues. Personally, I believe that a business should remain neutral and not alienate anyone or group regardless of their beliefs or opinions.
So those companies claim that piracy hurts their profits.... Well I'm downloading them now!!! If what they say is true then I'm doing my part to hurt their profit margins.

In fact, most businesses do exactly that. As Michael Jordan famously said, "Republicans buy gym shoes, too."

soulcity, what drove you to do that?
I like to pirate, but I don't claim to do it for "moral and ethical" reasons, although I do plan on spinning a few Reminbi for AnyDVD and ConvertXtoDVD.
I'm not judging you, but is it that important?

That only works if you were actually planning to buy the product. Otherwise it is just an empty gesture.

Yes, buying MP3s is counter-revolutionary!

Those are the only companies I"m doing business with these days.

It's an outdated format but I still use it!
