No excuse to condone piracy

Stamping out video piracy may well be a futile fight, as long as there are takers.

WE seem to possess a twisted sense of morality in our perception of intellectual copyright, even those of us who understand what the phrase means. Our most common justification for buying pirated discs is, “but the original is just too expensive!” Thus do we banish our guilt, if any, to the dark places and blithely continue to support the thieves.
