Of course we all know that pirated CD's is a lot cheaper from the original one. I honestly say that I did buy a pirated CD (Am I gonna get arrested for saying this in public ?)
Actually the main reason I buy that CD because I was looking for this CD and I have ask to almost official CD store in my town, and I couldn't find it.
Suddenly when was in a shopping mall in my town, I saw it. There it was. I was wondering how come in dozen record stores they said it wasn't sold in my country but they can sell it in pirated.
I was so curious..I buy the CD.
Few month after that a friend of mine get the same CD as a gift from her auntie in Holland. So I borrow it. I want to see the different. But the most suprising thing is the pirated CD run on the CD player better from the original one. How can that happen ? Her CD was still brand new and my CD already had few scratch.
What's that mean ? It's impossible to say that my pirated CD have better quality.

Lmfao.
I don't buy them, I just pirate them. xD
I've got millions, mostly CDs, but sometimes DVDs.
That's how I watched the Simpsons movie before it came out on DVD without having to spend a cent. ;D

Huehuehue...
I'm a total consumer of pirated CD, and DVD. It's cheap and the qulity is the same, but if I need the special features or bonuses, I should buy the original one. And you know, the price is 1:10 between the original and pirated one.
Just support the local artist, the hell with others. (jk) heuhueheuhe

I think it is be honest that I am a total consumer of pirated CD or DVD,cause it is cheaper and the quality is almost the same, but if I need the special features and there is not pirate CD for it and I should buy the original one.
I don't think so that the pirate CD is better than the original for my experience if use the CD player from one country the original CD can not read by that CD player.

Yes I have bought pirated CD's / Dvd's. Sometimes it is better to have the pirated cds/ dvds that the original copies.. the net is a wonderful thing to say the least and whats the difference when there are programs where you can download and watch or listen on the net.
