@ Ian: Or you could ...

@ Ian: Or you could fix the reason why piracy exists in the first place: Developers, marketers and publishers taking advantage of consumer ignorance to expoit sales. Bashing people over the head with how wrong piracy is will only make them want to do it more, considering they feel it ...
