I don't even bother with burning DVD's with feature films. For one the qulity isn't as good as the actual product. And two I rather wait and build my excitement. Its fun that way the way I look at it. My cousin did that with Episode 1 and it looked horrible. People whome sell these boot leg copies are takeing millions of dollors from the motion picture business and makeing something with awesome qulity and turning them into measily poor qulity films. That alone can easlily result in the los of careers for people whome work or eventually want to be in this field of work like Oddguy and I and a lot of others.

But of course there is nothing wrong with makeing a copy and giveing it to your friends for free and then buying the actual product. That way its not takeing away the business of the industry.

As an illustraitor I have to be careful that nobody steals my work. Copyrighting is the number one thing in this business from the directors to the actors and even the illustraitors and artist where I fall in. We make a liveing of what the rest of the world considers entertainment. This is what our job is, we simply make a liveing off of this. So in finnish, piracy in this is most certainly wrong. But copying the product and destributing to people just for free is ok. It has to be non profit or otherwise its simply stealing business.


Look at it this way. If people keep buying pireted movies or music then eventually the film and entertainment industry will eventually loose profit thus resulting in the closeing of doors of huge industries like 20th Century Fox. which means no more movies. No more music because they don't have the money to do what they want to do. The entertainment industry would wither in that case. But realistically that won't ever happen because the entertainment industry is so big its impossible. There is a saying that says "Hollywood runs the world." And in many ways it sort of does if you think about it.
