Does piracy offer anything good? (aside from the bad)

[Nifft]

And piracy tanked Wolverine. So many people saw it online, no one went to see it in the theaters. Truly this is a bullet proof case about the number of actual sales that piracy causes! Bulletproof!

The flaw in your case is this: books aren't movies, and me paging through a book in a game store (while eating chocolate!!!) is quite different from me watching a movie (while eating chocolate), particularly if I then put the book back on the shelf and actually buy it from Amazon.

Therefore, your only choice is clearly:
- Piracy.
- My chocolaty fingerprints sticking up every book you wish to buy, from now until the end of time.

It's an easy decision if you ask me.

Off-topic:Super Deadpool tanked Wolverine. People liked myself warned all their friends so they could save money. Yes I took one for the team. For those that have not seen it don't rent the movie to find out about Super Deadpool, just ask one of your buddies that wasted his money like I did.

How did Wolverine tank? It made $90 million on the opening weekend in the US alone!

I do not think it did tank. I just wanted to vent because my money went towards it not tanking.
