For/against/neutral?
A serious thread to the industries it affects? If so, is it worth taking measures against services such as Megaupload in the name of curbing piracy?
An unavoidable part of the internet age, or simply a service problem?

I'm ok with it up to the point where I just want to try something without having to go buy it or find it online with a crappy quality, I'm mostly talking about games and tv shows. If someone likes something they pirated then when they have the money they should go buy said product, I've done that several times with video games on my PC. I pirated FarCry 3 a while back, and since I don't really play consoles it's sort of like borrowing the game for a little while to see what I think of it. As soon as I have the money I intend to buy the game.
