Are they going to ban blank CD's and DVD's because they can be used to distribute pirated movies and games?

Rot

They are used far more widely for legal purposes. Do you have a vested in interest in these R4 dfevices? If the comnpany that made them actualkly paid for a Nintendo licence they might have been on to something, instead they are criminals.

Here is an idea.

Try actually buying something legally for once, I know, it's a wierd idea but give it go.

There is nothing wrong with piracy.
Really

Have you thought about why the prices are so high? its called greed.
the bootleg people sell things for 5$ maybe if companies sold movies for 5$ it would stop piracy.

I mean TV shows, come on TV for free so why cant you just watch anything online for free for ever?

Piracy in all inst bad. Miley cyrus and ladygagas and bebers make Millions i don't think piracy will hurt them and if it did oh well suck it up go buy a normal house.

why do movie stars get paid Millions for a role?
How come when i open up a news paper i see some rich celeb daddy's girl is paying 3 mill on a wedding?

Videogames cost 60$ soon to be 70$
some people work 10 hours just to make 60$ after taxes.
Maybe if people and the world took one for the team and stopped being greedy piracy would cease to exist. Inflation is killing the industry and governments meddling in consumer and business affairs is not going to help the situation either. it just makes you want to find a way to get around it.

In the end if things keep up piracy will be the internet version of Marijuana . gray ares, people that support it, people that dont and diehards for the stuff.

Me yea i pirate i don't know anyone who doesn't pirate when i say pirate i am using the literal theft version that people liberally associate with piracy.

copying pictures and using them as avatars i doubt 90% of n4g has the express written permission to use the images that they use. the way i was taught if it was on the internet it was there to be shared. you shouldn't put something on a network of networks and think no one will even look at it.

Also I buy DVDs of things i deem purchase worthy not garbage.
i buy good games and games that i like/cult follow. I buy music but only Mix tapes and things from good DJs music is mostly free on the airwaves and i can always get music from people. Not that many things warrant purchases anymore in 2010.

A new music distribution should be advertisement based or something. but pretty soon that will be tapped out. the world is dieing /end rant.

Seriously...that money you 'saved' could have gone to developing quality games on the DS. You're a huge part of the problem, and the reason the cards are banned.

Someone call the cyber police
