    If the developers who made the work are not being compensated properly and the publishers are charging predatory rates, then pirate away.

    If the publishers themselves who have more than the means to actually pay the residuals for the work, are they themselves pirating, and then reselling the product? Up to you where your moral compass is on that.

      There are ways of donating directly to creators that aren’t just pirating their work, so hope we all advocate for that just as much. It’s Bandcamp Friday today by the way.
