Really ?
How can you take the article seriously when the author states that back in day he used to copy Amiga games "just because he could", and then goes on to rave about internet piracy.
Nothing has changed other than the medium.
People don't copy games anymore, they share it on the web.
And to put things in perspective, the Amiga gaming scene was destroyed, completely obliterated by pirates, the people that copied games just because they could.
So the author of the article has no kind of legitimization to pontificate about modern piracy and making it seem like they (old and modern) piracy are 2 different things motivated by different reasons. Hint : They're not.
Epic Fail.
