- Response to pirating article
-
- By Robert Scott
-
- It is about time that pirating is being banged home to us, there are no
- two ways about it pirating is destroying the Amiga. I do take the point
- that Apoganza made about bringing down the price of software to battle
- piracy. This is a very valid point and I am 110 percent sure that if all
- the companies too this policy up that it would work.
-
- The reason i say this is beacuse I used to be a pirate, for the reason
- that I could not afford to buy 30 pound games. Howeverr if I did like a
- game I would go out at the weekend and buy it. This brings me to my
- other point. If there was a better service at computer shops to allow
- yuto try a game in full at the shop before perchase then you would find
- that more people would end up buying due to the fact they would know the
- quality of the game they are purchasing.
-
- Another way around this would be to send out more demos of games on disk
- magazines or even a service in which your local shop would provide a demo
- if you took in blank disks. All these are ways in which a pirate i.e
- what i was to give up pirating for legal buying of QUALITY games.
