Fan of pirated copy
I'm curious if we have or how many peeps here are still using pirated materials (ebook, movies, music etc...) anything that you're using without permission. Why you're still using it?

I pirate nearly everything from movies to games to etc.
I own a Pirate Bay t-shirt.
I am a professional software developer. Everything I own rights to I have released freely.

I pay for what ever I need unless it is free in the first place.

Guilty....
The laptop I'm running has a pirated version of Windows.
I bought the laptop with Windows on it, the Operating System crashed and I could not find the CD. Dell wouldn't help me because the number on the bottom is worn off.
I wasn't paying twice for one thing.
It's the same version that was on it to begin with.

I use pirated copies of WordPress on pirated servers. Our home, van, and groceries are also pirated.
Other than that, everything is paid for. The government has pirates...but that's a subject for another day.

Considering that you pay for a lot of content already through a copying levy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_copying_levy) one doesnt really use it without permission or paying for it.

Lots of people still pirate, lots of people pirate less that they can afford things too... or the ones that just want to try something out that don't realize there are trials and things for software.
