I run a gaming clan for the PC version of COD, and the "Black Ops" came out and we were discussing it via our admins and it was mentioned that a number of people had already downloaded the game from torrent sites before it was in the stores.

I don't care how you look at this, this is illegal. They are using the software without purchasing it, and broke the law multiple times over in the process. The easy way to catch them is to find it on line, and then cross reference it with everyone who illegally downloaded it. Then you legally sue them. According to law, you send them a letter explaining that you have proof they illegally downloaded your copyrighted protected material without paying for it, and give them a chance to settle out of court.

It's really just like a speeding ticket. You get a letter in the mail saying you got a ticket, and you can either just pay the fine or take your chances in court.

That's how the fucking law works.
