watching pirated movies is considered unethical...why so? or why not?
bryan adam was quoted saying it in an interview of some sort...that his cd's are too expensive for a common man to enjoy it...thru mp3 formats, torrents, cds etc...he has more listeners and fans, plus more ppl get influenced by his music...so he is kinda full on piracy...
my aunt says that since i do most of the things considering morals...its bad of me to watch pirated movies...or using torrent...as far as my say to that is...i watch movies in the theatre so i technically give the producers n investors my share of money for entertainment...so i may not be compelled to pay a high price while purchasing the DVD for my personal collection later on....
moreover not all movies are worth even movie tickets...eg: after super flops from J Lo...i dont think i will watch her any movie for free either...n then there r movies like 'john tucker must die'...which is entertaining for max 2-3 watchs in a life time...so why shld i spend like 10 dollars for its show...in dhs its like 30 bucks...thats a lot...
its true that unlike 5 years back, now a movies success is considered based on how well it does in the first week...and very few movies are on cd stands in the end of that first week...so when i am actually watching at home or at a fnds place...everyone has got there profit...rite?
sometimes when i watch a lame movie, i feel like i have wasted the money on the cd, n i also feel bad when i watch a good movie on cd coz i feel i am cheating somehow.....dont know wats rite...but since i am still a student n dont earn my own living i think i shld keep my movie budget per month at minimal...so whether i like it or not...sometimes i just do watch the cds....
still cant help the guilt....signing off...
