Do you think the marketing and pricing system actors have their own share of responsibility for this alongside the exploiters of the copyrighted product? Can we question the income average, employement problems etc. for piracy as well? Or are those only excuses to justify these actions or decrease the guilt level of them?
To me, the piracy is just unstoppable. And I think thought, art and those kinds of things do need to be freeware. Because society is not build on acquiring everything to everyone and these things are like water, the most essential need, which is also a meta. There should be some other way to stop the exploitation rather than sueing sites that literally has no part in anything. They don't have to be on pirate's side to search for a new solution, approach to this. Pragmatically speaking from their side, they could find another way to add the pirate side to the profit system and protect the copyright owner out of exploitation's harm's way. There already is the great benefit of keeping the popularity up of the product's main area and the product itself, but I'm not getting there since I'm thinking in the shoes of the prosecutor. I find this necessary, because I don't know about your environment, but some products led by video games, sports broadcasts and certain book series are really pain in the wallet or simply impossible for some income groups here in Turkey. So I find the piracy a little balancing for the extreme difference of different socio-economical layers.
