You should check out the movie on Netflix -- I'm not in the market for cancer therapy (fortunately) -- but this looked like a really good option, and they deal with the study methodology used by others. I hope I never have to use this for me or anyone I love, but in the cases they presented compared vs. radiation/chemo therapies -- results were better for his therapy. I think there's a lot more to this story than obvious quakery.

When I lived in Taiwan in '98 this was already pretty common knowledge -- these ships aren't operated by garden variety pirates, but criminal mafias (mostly Chinese) that have their hands in anything that can make them money.

US software firms are being too greedy considering the average income of many of these countries.. Sure there's a rich elite that can afford anything (& more) than we buy in the US, but these companies watched the market for these product build.

I worked in a local Taiwanese distributor, and when they're selling the pirated version for $4-5 US, you don't have a chance of selling many $35-40 games. Sell them for $10-$15 and people would have had the pride of owning a legitimate copy push them over the edge.. Of course, we could never convince Global companies to go for that.

My opinion: The media companies created this. They won't be able to sell the full priced versions anyway. Sell merchandise and live with it!
