Curious as to how many others do this, or if I am just crazy. Anyone else buy physical copies of games and movies and play/watch a pirated version to keep the original product sealed? Do you have a different method or do something similar?
i´ve pirated the ebook version of physical books I´ve already owned. i also down music from albums I also owned because I was too lazy to burn the CDs. i also emulated 3ds games so I could played them on my PC while transferring my safe files there to keep playing the game where I was left off
I did this with comics. Buy the singles to keep prestine, and purchase the paperbacks to read.
Why not? It is legal in some countries(or all?), to “reclaim” a digital copy if you own the original. Who would jugde you?
I sometimes buy a physical book but end up pirating a copy to my ereader so I can read in bed easier and use the dyslexic font. Makes me a bit sad that the books don’t get those creases in the spine from being read. Just looks like I own a bunch of books I didn’t read
Done that.
But I’ve also done it the other way around. Saw how many DLC are there for cities skyline and then saw it on firgirl. You know the rest. Call me crazy but I did bought the base game and few DLC. But I always preferred playing the fitgirl version
