While I do have no morals when it comes to copying smb elses hard work(I am a programmer, basically my job) I Support games when they are good. Movies are rarely any good but the cinema isn't as expensive for me anymore than when I was a student.

And most important you can't refund bad movies in the cinema.

I still think it should be illegal to sell someone elses work though. This also means profiting from it when you use it in your product/development environment.

TL;DR:

Piracy can be a means of demonstration to show the flaws in copyright. Which obviously needs to be public.
