Why do so many people bootleg/how would you feel?!
Question: Why do so many people bootleg/how would you feel!?
Why do so many people come on here asking about 'where can i find a bootleg of!.!.!.' 'where can i watch this movie online'
Why are people so lazy why can't they just go to the theater and pay to see the movie or go to block busters and spend the $3 to rent it!?
Its actually quite sad because all of these filmmakers are spending millions of dollars making these films for our entertainment the least we could do is go spend the $6!.
And how would you feel if you were one of the people involved in making a movie (either a special effects person, stunt person, director!.!.etc) and everyone went and bootlegged your movie and you ended up not getting paid because of it!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

Answers:
If I were a filmmaker I would sue people for bootlegging my work!. There is a copyright law that says you can be fined if you get caught so these people must be stupid for doing this because they could get caught and put in jail or fined!. That is like if you needed to go to an event and needed a fancy outfit and you said to yourself 'im only going to wear this once theres no point in spending money on it' and you stole it!. Either way it is stealing and its wrong!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I'm sorry but what decade are you living in!? Movie tickets cost a minimum of $10!.50 where I live and renting is more like $5 or $6!. It's not that people are lazy, that has absolutely nothing to do with getting bootleg movies!. It all has to do with the ridiculous price of seeing, renting and especially purchasing movies!. A new DVD costs $26, I don't know about y'all over in Pixie-Town, but here on earth we can't always afford to go and spend all that money for entertainment!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
It's because everything has gone up in price!.!.except blank DVD's!. I bought a pack of 50 for $8!. That's about 16 cents per DVD!. Let's figure!.!.The movies in my area are about $7(and thats on Sunday)!.
So
Movies
2 tickets=$14
2 popcorn=$12
2 drinks=$8
1 candy=$4
That's $38 not including the gas to get there!.
Staying home and bootleg
1 blank DVD=$0!.16
1 box of popcorn=$2
2 drinks=$2
1 candy=$1
Thats $5!.16
You save $32!.84 by staying home(plus more for gas)Www@Enter-QA@Com

actually, all these people are paid for making the movie before the movie even comes out!. so even if everyone in the world refused to pay for a movie and bootlegged it, everyone who worked on the film would go home a happy person!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Because its a recession and people don't have money to buy the dvd!. Nobody wants to rent the film they want to keep it and maybe if they lowered the prices on the sucky films and cds, nobody would have to bootleg!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I don't think it really matters, at this point!. The technology is easy enough for people to do it, so people will!. It's easier to bootleg things!. As for going out and buying it, yes, I understand what you're saying but when you live in a town like I do, where the nearest WALMART is 30 miles away, unless someone's going to pay for my gas for me to just take a joy ride to buy a movie that I can download here at home, then tough luck!. I mean, I'm not saying I don't buy movies or go to the theater, because I do!. If there's a movie I want to download, I'll do that too!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
