A good pirate doesn't steal other peoples stuff! They simply take a copy. Yarr.
99 copies of a movie on the wall, 99 copies of that movie. Take one down, pass it around, still 99 copies of that movie on the wall
9999 copies of that movie by my count, matey!
Arrr!
I dunno, if you take a copy for some reason there’s now 100 copies of that movie on the wall.
We’re hurting the economy by NOT making free copies of valuable content.
I like the way you think
As someone outside America's (and upper-class England's) sphere of education extortion, those who pirate and distribute textbooks are true gods - we get to learn for free for fifteen years, so should everyone.
Well shiver me timbers matey!
