the concept "when you cant afford something then you cant have it" made no sense to him.
The thread was packed with the age old pirate's mantra of "I wouldn't have bought it anyway so it isn't like the company is out any money." Had they not purchased it, great. The company doesn't make a sale and they don't have the product. However, they can't seem to grasp the fact that they now have the product and the company still doesn't have their money.
