Addicted to piracy

On average I download around 1TB a month, this is considered light downloading for myself. Mainly music, and the odd TV Shows.

Don't have me wrong, I do pay for content as well. If I cannot find it online, I'll even contact the company who published it. Though sometimes they don't contact you back :(

In any case usually that person in the basement or the one who emerged to have their own lil' shop are more realiable. For certain media you can pay up to a grand for it, most stuff I can't find is 150-400$ on the low end.

And if I buy something, and have something in my library others do not I will share it. Because who wants to pay a grand on a cd. It is why I download most content, unless unavailable in the digital counter part. I'm about data/sample rates/size, the upmost quality. It just seems these days no one cares, as technology cheapens people seem to adjust over but it is not like back in day when it was a big new thing and the best of the best was the in thing. Now everyone takes things forgranted.

    I have 2,500 songs in my library and probably paid for like 15 songs because I couldn't find it anywhere on the internet. I'm also not paying 500$ for Photoshop.

    1TB is nuts lol I'm surprised your internet company hasn't contacted you yet.

      Some albums/dvds are hard to find, have limited prints and it depends on there condition. I buy magazines and books all the time, one I have retails at 6$ but due to the rarity it markets at 240$ and it is a no name author.

    How have you pirated that much and not gotten caught yet? A friend of my brother downloaded Photoshop and some movies and was visited by the police!

    It's not really an addiction. It would be an addiction if you just went down the list of new torrents everyday downloading them just to download them.

      My comment was deleted or didn't go through...

      Uhhhhhhhhhhm..... I do that on the heavy months, just click a bunch of stuff too sample new things. Or I'll download random anime cause it is 10 bit and just watch it for opening/closing credits mostly (the noises). Is about some cowboys shooting rainbows at indians from mars in a foreign language not like I could or would want to watch it. I justify my actions by saying when the Internet is not working you'll be glad you did that.

      UHM...................... I do that sometimes. During the heavy flow months when I don't want any thing in pacticular to sample new flavours. Or sometimes it is an anime file with 10 bit audio in a language I don't know, and I'll never watch because it is about cowboys who use the power of rainbows to defeat the indians of mars. I just listen to it for the opening/end credits mostly.
