piracy no doubt causes companies to lose money but there is also another side to it all. In this age of internet and spread of word when a game or movie is really good and pirates download it and enjoy the game they feel they owe a debt to the developpers and are very likely to spread the word around when a game is good. A large number of pirates would never buy the game or film either they couldn't afford it or they would rather spend their money on something else so at what loss to the industry is it when they've bought the hardware. Many games just really aren't that great and to be able to download and try it out first is a great way to know if the game is for you, there are many who would buy the game after they have tried it out and enjoy it enough. There are many who would buy the film dvd or dvd of television shows once they have become fans of it. If we could cut all piracy away how cheap would the games be? the new psp only allows downloaded content but their prices are as high as if you bought it from the store and had to pay for packaging and all the middle men in between. One day when all consoles are linked to the net and only then can play games that are constantly streamed will we see the prices come down? Piracy will always be around in one way or another we need to embrace those pirates and use them constructively and if you really want to cut piracy bring the games down to an affordable price you'll sell a hell of a lot more consoles and games that way. Most games play for an average of 5 hours and are never touched again and in the end really are not worth that high cost to the consumer. That said alot of the best games of all time did not have such a high production cost and have months of play in them. Last thing I'll say is when a game is purchased you're much more likely to really make the most out of it and play it even when it wasn't all that great of a game. Legalize marijuana! Uh wait..
