How do you rate people who like to buy pirated copies?

I am very dissupportive of buying and selling pirated copies. Because I think there is still a very big gap in the maintenance of copyright in China. People don't pay much attention to the maintenance of this intellectual property right, or don't respect this aspect very much.

Personally, I'm very much against buying pirated copies.

In fact, there is no difference between piracy and genuine for me, for example, a provincial genuine book is a national uniform retail price, and pirated books are sold by catties, what I need is the general content of the book, not that it has a collection value for him, everyone's ideas are different, if I have the idea to collect, I will definitely buy a genuine one.

People who may like to buy pirated copies, they just don't have the money to buy genuine copies, but they still like this thing, they can only spend money to buy pirated copies, and there is no way to do it.

A book in the library with a very ordinary packaging costs dozens of dollars at every turn. And what about piracy? A dozen pieces are done. As long as there is no lack of words, who cares if it is pirated or not! The exception to this is Collection.

I don't think it's appropriate to make too many comments. Although legally speaking, this is an infringement of other people's intellectual property rights. But some people really don't allow it, because the genuine one is too expensive.

The economic ability does not allow it, there are some people who want to respect this intellectual property right, but without that money, how much does a genuine version cost? You can't afford it, you have the mind to respect other people's creativity, but reality doesn't allow it.

I agree with the genuine values, but I am a little hesitant about the way to deal with the groups that infringe on the rights and interests of the genuine, and try not to use piracy, because there are some things that cannot be compared with the open version.

Although this behavior is incorrect, if you think about it carefully, it is impossible to stifle such thoughts as long as piracy exists. If there were no pirated goods on the market, people like them wouldn't buy them.

I don't think it's a shame to be practical about pirated books, but it's not good if you make too many mistakes and make a mistake yourself, and you can still use the genuine version. Of course, after all, I can go abroad, so I can't compare with poor students in China, but if you consider the price of books in the United States, I am really a poor student. A book can be as little as dozens or more than a few hundred dollars, and if it is second-hand, it will be divided by two at most, and sometimes a course needs more than one book, and it is distressing to buy books when you first come.

Although the protection of copyright in the United States is extremely strict, so I basically don't see pirated books in print, but I later found out that many books can be searched on the Internet, and many Americans are also using **pdf instead of buying books, and I have copied a few copies from them. The school has a rule, so professors can't directly put the pdf version of the book on the Internet, but most of them will turn a blind eye to the students who use the pdf, and even remind us when we leave homework to pay attention to the number of the book because the question number may be different for different versions. In addition, many professors will actually directly put their own books on the Internet for everyone to do casually, after all, they don't point to how much money they make from selling books.

In that case, I can download the clearest PDF. Of course, more books are still photocopied, thanks to the seniors who worked hard to scan. Of course, the quality of photocopies is uneven, some are very clear just like the original manuscript, some can clearly see the traces of scanning, some are blurry, sometimes there are notes made by predecessors, and there will even be missing pages or multiple pages, reading this kind of book is really a torment.

If you can't afford to buy genuine literary books, you can go to the school library to borrow them, and borrow more to read while you are still a student. My dad was a poor student more than 30 years ago, he couldn't afford pirated books, and he read horribly during college: foreign literature, Chinese history, Go, poetry.

He studied building construction). Since I was a child, I often heard him recite Cao Cao on a whim, or a water tune song or something. As far as I know, a textbook costs a few dozen yuan a copy in China, and only two working meals in a big city.

If you really can't open the pot if you are really poor, then look at it. But remember to make money in the future, and replace all the pirated copies you have bought with genuine ones. You're full, and the author has to eat too.

The most shameful thing is not the person who reads pirated books, but the person who reads pirated books and laughs at the people who buy genuine copies of the book with the confidence of being a fool.

There is no shame in reading pirated books, but shame on those who are ashamed to say that spending money is disrespectful to their parents.

It must not be regarded as shameful in China, and it must be seen in light of the actual situation. Let's look at the facts.
