I think this is actually the best argument so far, 100% agree with you.
On another note, what about if I rent a film from lovefilm and then copy it? Technically I have paid for the movie right?
Regarding movies I have to say I love going to the cinema, went last night in fact to see the new Harry Potter, but I think the price they charge now is absurd. Cinema prices have just gone up and up and up over the years and theirs no excuse for it. I don't think they can even blame piracy because movie piracy didn't used to a huge problem. I couldn't say what started the problems really, the prices going up or piracy of movies, but it's too expensive now. £24 for 3 of us to see that film last night.
