yes no problem...the US gov is after his ass + you must live in an alternate reality if you think they don't have tons and tons of evidence collected before hand...how hard do you think it was to collect this evidence?

You seem to misunderstand the majority of piracy is done for shitz and gglz, not profit.

I used to pirate from 1987-99. Had six shops, 18 workers, it was legal. Here it is in one sentence from a pro: quality piracy is done for money, shit useless blurry shit is done for shits and giggles. Want quality and fresh stuff for shits and giggles?
funny...

Fuck man, piracy has been going since the printing press, and only VERY recently have a few people made money from it. The grass roots guys doing the initial cracking/piracy are still doing it for no money. Check out Usenet. All the groups there make nothing. IRC? Nothing. etc etc etc.
I'm really sorry you think piracy is to blame for your bad sales. It isn't.

Well I was a member of RAZOR1911 , DOD, SKiDROW ect ect I used to pay 2-3K$/week for fresh, quality cracked games and apps. Cheap shit is to be had everywhere. But the quality and freshness came at a price. End of story.
You know what stopped me in my 3rd world shit hole? 1 law. That's right, just one single law made me quit my very lucrative business. Piracy in my 3rd world shit hole was reduced to a few guys with shit content. It fell apart. It is no more.
Oh and they will never stop SPAM either. Even though I do not get a single spam to my e-mail I am sure it will never be stopped completely but its crippled. All I did was open a gmail account. But spam will never be stopped
You are right lazy shit emo kids will spend their time re-mirroring and re-linking and re-uploading stuff and risk jail in a business that they can not monetize...sounds about right...spam and piracy no stopping them
