The only thing that MIGHT take me off piracy is the ability to do legally and for reasonable cost what I do with piracy. If I buy something, I download and store it wherever and it's mine forever. I have no problem paying for my content, once. The problem is that we're being driven towards paying for our content over and over. Just like we're being asked to pay for our everything else over and over.
