Jay PellisLast boost. I will read/watch potter stuff because I get it all for free and no, I won't say where. With that being said, why not take a look at Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Excellent book series, first 2 seasons of tv show was one of the most book accurate shows I've seen in years and we don't have a crazy nut job lady writing it.
@jpellis2008 I don't know about you, but I personally care about the story more than who wrote it. And if the story is good, that means the author is good. We can't deny the fact that Harry Potter is one of the most successful and most loved world the last 25 years or so. None, I repeat, none of the modern books managed to reach so many people from so many cultures and ages. Rowling has her own opinions on the world and you are free not to agree with them, but you have no rights to pirate something just because the author's opinions aren't the same as yours.
Winter blue tardis@destranis @jpellis2008 Honestly, if something is too expensive, we all know what will happen. I used to pirate things when I was younger, I still do it now, if the price isn't justified tbf. Also, in a sense, yes, if we can support, we should support. I can't say whether I agree or disagree with the opinions of rolling. I will safe that opinion for my own old self. :)
@tardis @destranis @jpellis2008 If you don't pirate sometimes, you will never finish your university. Lol. I used pirated Abbyy finereader myself for adapting books by myself, and handling various scans. No. Free options are not better.
@asael @tardis @jpellis2008 Yeah me too. I never said I've never pirated or anything, but there are people who pirate things just because they don't support someone's opinion. In Hungary there are going to be elections soon, and a few days ago I read a story in which a hair dresser told that she is very frustrated, because she had a client, they were speaking about anything and everything, and the client asked her, who she is going to vote for. At first she didn't want to tell because it's not the right place after all, but the client talked about politics for so long that of course she recognised who the hair dresser believes in. And when she did so, she stood up with wet hair and left because oh my god I am not going to support you with my money. And this is miserable to be honest. It's the same situation with Rowling now.
@destranis @asael @jpellis2008 Yeah, it is not good. TBF, I have an opinion on that as well, but you definitely don't want it. We're also going to have elections. I can type, or something. I promise. Maybe my brain will one day learn language...
