Post; download it or buy it


nowadays, u can nearly download anything from internet, ranging from music, pictures to games and movies

not just http sites, but also P2P wares such as eMule,Kazaa


so if there is an option,like the new battlefield 2 game,

will u download it on eMule (with cracking software to play in official servers without using cd-key) or buy it in store

I am a consumer. I prefer to get what I want with the lowest price possible.
If I am a producer (of BF2, for example), I would prefer if people bought them, so I make money.

I'm not going to by BF2; but if I am, I would buy it from a store (or order off the net). Think of the starving computer games designers! If everyone buys their products, they get paid, and they can make better games for everyone - good deal, right?

Buy it if you want better quality and service

Download it if you're too lazy for a walk

I will download the demo and if it is any good I will buy it, if its not then I probably wouldnt bother persuing it further.

I used to be like that but these days I dont mind paying for good software/music/movies, basically I download a lot of things but if they are any good I buy them if they suck they get deleted.
