I don't pirate because I'm opposed to paying for things. I pirate stuff because I don't want to support scumbag corporations that don't give a shit about me. In fact, I buy most of the media and games I consume, in order to support the devs behind it.

And that's not a "new piracy gen", that's how piracy has always been for most people. You're the odd one out here.

Yea, I'll pay for things. The problem is, what I want (DRM free media I can use on anything that will open them) is not generally for sale.
