I remember reading a thing a while ago saying that people that use torrents are also more likely to be higher than average consumers of official music/films/TV
Yeah, I pay something, but there's a personal limit and the thing is out there. If I download it tomorrow or wait 3 years, the makers get the same amount, I get to big it up on here slightly earlier and maybe you buy it before it's free everywhere. Personally it might feel a bit stealy but overall it's just market forces baby. I'm not morally superior about it but I don't care enough to not and I don't think it's the driving force behind anything else.
