Control Your Piracy [Lifestyle]

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

There are so many piracy in Indonesia. Books, Movies, DVD, and software. It’s not copyright that held firmly in Indonesia but right to copy. Truth be told, there’s no way you can really stop piracy. But, for those who indulge himself in piracy there’s some side effect if you’re not careful like :

  • Clutter around your DVD player because you bought your dvd but never watch them like ever.
  • Game that consume your time to complete every level.
  • Program that you cannot upgrade, but instead you wait for the crack version of that program.
  • Gazillion Bytes for mp3. And some even have the same songs. Yes, how many you bought those mp3 compilation and
  • Time consuming on picking the right movie or mp3 and even test if the disk have some stratch or not. You even wait in line to wait for the next customer.
  • Your harddisk is full with ebooks that free but you didn’t have time to read it yet.
  • A pile of CD, DVD, and also all possible media for you to keep CD and DVD like CD tower, CD bag, lot of plastic cover.

Yes, piracy is cheaper than original one. But with what do you trade it for? Time (to watch DVD or to choose thousand of mp3 to fit on your mp3 player), health (all physical activities that you can do instead of sitting like a couch potato watching DVD), and sanity (because you have to watch all that DVD, CD cluttered all over the place)
