wanted to give you an update with this. i gave this a shot over the weekend but it didn't go anywhere unfortunately. maybe i'm approaching it the wrong way, i will give it a shot again but if you hear nothing within a day or 2, i probably haven't gotten it. i don't think so. i researched this online and it would seem as though there has been no progress of doing this for 3 years. i'm not entirely sure about the specifics either. but i think it has to do with the fact that you have to be signed into your PSN while on mediago and since the PSP uses the same account it is activated for the correct account. i think that's the reason.
yes, i have stated that and am well aware of it. i'm not gonna touch on that thing since it's a different subject. however, that doesn't really answer my original question about why to be considered a victim it has to be without consent i'm not gonna lie here (and i'm not insinuating anything by the way), i HAVE read every post in this thread and i honestly don't know why you say the companies don't own the pattern because the patterns wouldn't be that way unless the company made them that way. i see what you're saying with the fallacy thing though, fine, maybe it IS stupid to believe something simply because it's a law. no hard feelings. just an fyi, i'm not debating against anybody, and i'm not the type to cling to beliefs blindly. i'm just trying to understand your opinions better
no victim no crime? couldn't it be argued that the production companies are victims of piracy? even though the impact can on them probably isn't that big and the impact isn't what we're discussing. i hope this doesn't veer off into it's own discussion but why does there need to be a lack of consent for something to be a crime? why can't you be a victim of your own crime? i thought suicide (not entirely sure of that one actually) and assisted suicide were against the law as well? and if there has to be a lack of consent for something to be a crime, wouldn't it be a crime to download music for free if the companies didn't consent to it? the point i'm trying to get across is that you can't just pick and choose which laws you want to and don't want to follow. break the law at your own risk, don't go whining that the law was stupid after you get caught for breaking it. yes, you are allowed to protest about stupid laws and yes there are stupid laws out there. but breaking them BEFORE having them repealed doesn't protect you from getting arrested for it.
