That is not piracy my friend. Maybe I don't comprehend your English well enough since I don't speak English natively, so perhaps you might want to explain what you meant instead of being a smartass.
The comment was made that people who created torrents were doing so to sell access to them for money, or to otherwise make financial gains through doing so. It was pointed out that most people who do it, do it for free. GA Russel then said that he didn't understand the motive for doing it, and I gave that explanation. Within the obvious context of pirating the works of others, not the "creating your own work and sharing it on-line" straw man you are trying to twist my words into saying. Friend.
