No one has rights to steal the other's works, that the rules.

I admit that I'm reading a scaned manga myself, (and use/wear some copy stuff like fake Levi too) but you know, I know, we know, everyone know that it's wrong.

In my country (Thailand) I think everyone know that what they're doing is wrong (me too!), but as counterfeit thing still available we have less choice to do but to buy it. If people is in the environment that PS2 counterfeit new game is around 80 Baht and the real copy is about 2000 you would know what will happen right. And like me and most people in the country, you grow up in that piracy heaven so you look at it like breathing, eating, nothing wrong with it! You can have Windows 7 copy that cost you the same as Whopper (or sometimes may be Jr.) so that's it.

Then problem arise, if they can steal foreigner companies, thay can steal Thai too!

Eventhough there are Thai software available for cheap price, It's mean nothing! They still copy and use counterfeit version because it's their normal life. You know, even EA have backed out from Thailand because lackluster sell (Eventhough Thai ver. of their games cost less than half than those sell in the US)

What I mean is eventhough I still use counterfeit thing, but if I have money and chance, I will always try to buy a real one because if you think that piracy is a normal thing, a whirpool of hell is awaiting you!

I still go to scanlation because many ecchi/seinen manga is not available in my country due to strict censorship law, but if I have chances I will buy it.
