First of all, I would like to state that I am aware that warez = teh ban. This thread is not asking for warez or offering it. It is simply discussing it and its moral issues.
What is your opinion on warez? Personally, I feel that it is a new aspect of the economy that must be considered. To try to wipe it out is ignorant, it is here to stay. I think that companies should accept the fact that the price of their goods has just droped. It is something that has happened a lot in the past. When VCRs came out, the TV industry was up in arms for the same reasons. People could record their shows, give them to friends, and ultimately not be forced to watch as much TV on the networks terms. Now, VCRs are considered common place and no one really complains about then. I think that music and even software piracy will someday meet a similar fate.
