I do support and I do buy products, CDs I do not. I don't even own CD player so I wouldn't go and purchase CDs to play on my computer when I can download them. I buy DVDs and Games, I download a lot of TV Shows but only because they ain't on DVD. If they released them on DVD I'd go out and buy them, I have quite a few DVDs and most of the stuff on my hard drive is TV shows, say like The Big Bang Theory, season 2 isn't on DVD so I've got it on my PC.
It doesn't cripple the industry, like Mentor said they don't loose a sale. I have well over 300 albums on my iTunes, but if I had to pay for them I would have around 50. I download music because I can and because it's so easy. With films I'm different, I'm mostly a TV guy but I have a fair few films on DVDs but I rarely, rarely download films. I'll go and buy the DVD as I like having a collection, but also having a collection of music and tv shows on my pc is something I like doing.
I also have an iTunes account with £22 in it at the moment and I've spent about £45 so far. I'm not a complete pirate, I will buy things I truly have an interest in but they can hardly sue me for downloading content which isn't available by any other means.
And Dom, £10 can be a bit to a teenage student when they don't have it, most people probably will have it but don't really want to waste it on a DVD or a game. They have other things to spend their money on.

£5 would get me into a club and a drink.
Would rather do that than buy a game.

I thought it was only illegal if people were sharing it

No, torrents are readily available. Torrent site's are designed for you to download files, it's different. Originally Posted by Dom C

only thing I buy is xbox games and sometimes films, but most of the time i'll download films and music.
there was little we could say, and even less we could do, as the ice kept getting thinner under me and you

I would pay for the music if I could, but I simply don't have all that free cash to be spending on it, so I illegal download. I haven't torrented for ages though...
I only download music though, nothing else. TV and Films I'll wait for DVD or see it in the cinema, and games I'll buy.
