Arkcon, just what do you think the original point of this discussion was?

Wait ... um ... I lost track. Talk amoungst yourselves ... OK, back with you.

Ok piracy. Yes, I've done it myself. Pretty much without rationaliztion of any kind. I just take the copied CD and play the game.

After a while, I delete the game. Maybe I buy the full Version to assuage my conscience (and 'cause it was a good game).

But it's wrong. Obviously wrong. Like stealing cable TV or eating grapes in the supermarket checkout line. Lisa had to break the concept over over Homer's head to get hime to agree -- but it was clear to even him, the golden rule{Link}
