Is Downloading Warez Right?

Do any of you think downloading Warez (hacked or cracked files) is right and should be legal?

Personally I dont think it should be wrong, cuz i dont got the money, and when i do have it, those stinkin software and food companies always seem to sneak it outta my pocket....well anyway, my opinion means little, its still illegal....

I think any1 against it is either really rich or just doesnt care for programs that you have to pay 100+ for

You know what I think is funny, Karant has a page and a half full of threads that he personally started within the past 3 days...:

Trogdor the Dargon! .... lol I think downloading WAREZ or PROGRAMS THAT ARE CRACKED! should be legal along with downloading mp3s, wavs, mpegs, avis, jpegs, bmps, gifs.

Now if it is legal to download gifs jpegs and bmps that give away things from magazines *no not pr0n* then why isnt it legal just to download what its about.

yup Trogdor thats me! muhahahahaha! Atleast ppl are responding to my threads!

True, lol. I can't come up with a witty response to that answer.

Of course it's wrong, people work hard to program that shit. It's also wrong for companies to charge up to thousands of dollars for a program that you don't get free upgrades to, and that won't last you forever. It's wrong, but that doesn't stop Microsoft from charging $499.99 For Xp Pro, it doesn't stop Adobe from charging $10,000.00 for Adobe Fontfolio. If it being just plain wrong won't stop them from ripping people off, then why should the fact that piracy is wrong stop me from downloading whatever the fux I want?

I'm fine with downloading music, apps, games as long as you at least buy the ones you really like for the purpose of supporting the company. It'd be great if it all worked on a donation system, but there'd be too many people that would take advantage of that. Darn humanity.
