Piracy is a name game for the media conglomerates use to attenpt and sway those non-infomed to their side. Unfortunatly after years of price gouging, price fixing, and other generally mean and nasty things most people could give a crap what the RIAA and MPAA think.

Illegal goods and services do cost you money, but the emdia conglomerates are fishing for any good reason to continue to explot both their cusomer base and the artist that are force to use them.
