*nod* Getting hold of the content by torrenting, even if you can't obtain it any other way, it is still definitely a copyright license violation, and not 100% ethically clean, you'll have no argument from me about that. :-)

And yes, my argument is not at all that they should be required to sell it to me, it's that since it would be actually quite simple for them to sell it to me conveniently (via a number of possible digital marketplaces), they're just choosing not to, therefore they are idiots who apparently don't want to be given money.
