Might feel more open if people didn’t need a fucking invite code to join, but ok.
It’s been shown repeatedly that a large part of piracy isn’t about cost, it’s about convenience. It was easier to pay $0.99 and get what you wanted when you wanted it, than download 8 files off of Napster and hope that one of them was actually a decent bitrate and was the song the title said it was.
“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.”

the best 2D Mario game ever made.
That is a bold statement, given Super Mario Bros. 3 and World exist. I hope it lives up to those games.
Pool alleged that the family’s lawyer said she wants to “bankrupt” the school district and its leaders during the legal proceedings.
Isn’t that a Republican’s job?
What happens if my brother gets banned for cheating while playing my game?
If a family member gets banned for cheating while playing your copy of a game, you (the game owner) will also be banned in that game. Other family members are not impacted.
Fuck that, yo.
Ah, yes. The “find out” stage of the “fuck around and find out” lesson from thinking “we can do Netflix ourselves.” Nice work, assbags.
I know it gets quoted a lot, but Gabe was 100% right. It boggles my mind how people in power over these streaming services just don’t get it:
One thing that we have learned is that piracy is not a pricing issue. It’s a service issue. The easiest way to stop piracy is not by putting antipiracy technology to work. It’s by giving those people a service that’s better than what they’re receiving from the pirates.
