Since it has VALUE then it's worth PAYING for.
I'm sorry... I said it was okay to pirate crap movies? Could you quote me on that?

I was showing why more releases have taken place and the money hasn't grown that much for them, or the viewings. Because, they are crap, by the studio standard... thus they can sell them for $1.

Nobody said shit about pirating anything.
