Though it's worth noting that some people do. In emulation groups on usenet I used to see people going to a lot of effort to get versions of games that wouldn't even run properly. More recently, I've seen bulk torrents of console games that are about the size of every hard drive I've ever owned put together.
I consider this a good thing, but it seems like I've got different priorities than a lot of people.
Never mind the bandwith needed to suck all that down must be hellaciously expensive. I don't know why people say scanlations are free... they're not. You pay for the bandwitdth to download them. You just don't notice it unless you smash through your ISP's cap and get massively charged. And the time to download. With my connection it's faster to go buy a couple of DvD's, rather than torrent them and deal with spotty quality, inconsistent translations, and irritating fonts.

It sounded to me like he doesn't like to do *any* financial business online. And wants companies to offer more selection in brick-and-mortar stores within visitable range.

Sorry... but I had to point out that I am not female.
