    No, you guys are missing the point. If you want to own something buy Blu-ray’s, piracy isn’t justifiable just because you don’t want to buy it.

    You don’t have to justify piracy like you idiots always tries to do. Who cares?

      Calling people idiots doesn’t make you right, and trying to make a different point doesn’t show that you understood the original point—quite the opposite.

      The point is that if a company can choose not to honor its legal obligation to consumers who have purchased content from them, then there is no reason for consumers to honor their legal obligation to refrain from accessing the same content outside the system the company has provided—or in this case failed to provide.

      Moreover, if the legal system of your country doesn’t require everyone to uphold their legal obligations, then why should we allow it to hold us to the obligations it has placed on us?

      Now you’ll probably write a reply that reply that shows no understanding of the difference between ownership and licensing, or between theft and unauthorized access, but you can’t say I didn’t try.

        The company did honor its legal obligations.

        Whenever it’s morally right is a different discussion.

        I don’t care about your point. I just think the constant attempts of justification are really annoying. Like it or not, I will continue to complain about that.

          Cool, keep on bootlicking big companies that underpay their workers and overcharge their customers.

            You guys are really cringe.

            Why do you need to constantly justify piracy?

            Just do it. I have hundreds of movies on my media server and dozens of series. Yet I don’t feel the need to complain and whine about something that doesn’t affect me.

            Keep on crying.

        Because buying Blu-ray’s is owning?

        Personally I just pirate everything on my Plex server but don’t pretend that this Sony news makes piracy justified.
