STEALING PPVs ? Right or Wrong ?

I Apologize for re-Posting Again So Soon .. BUT I forgot to Put A Subject Line in My Question .... So; I've Corrected It . Thanks For Understanding !!

Am I the ONLY person here who is sick and tired of these DEADBEATS who want to watch the PPVs for FREE somewhere ?

They can't seem to get it thru their skulls that when a PPV is STOLEN and received FREE ; it takes away from the income that the WWE receives ...

In return; employees are laid off or Fired ... perhaps even a good mid carder , who "Could" have made a name for himself or herself in the business ....

Also; by STEALING the PPV; it makes the cost eventually go up for us HONEST folks who PAY for the PPVs .......

I am just wondering ?????

Thanks in Advance for YOUR Answers and Thoughts ......

    It is wrong, if you cant afford to pay for it. Just go to sites that report on whats going on. No need to steal it. If I dont have a tv is it okay for me to break into a house and steal 1 if the owner of the house has 3. The answer would be no.

    Is it wrong? Absolutely it is wrong. Is it actually COSTING WWE anything, however? All you have to do is look at their profit and loss statements every quarter. WWE is not hurting, they are not laying off employees. As far as wrestlers go, WWE has no budget constraints regarding the wrestlers, if a wrestler is let go it is either because they violated a policy, the wrestler was not happy, or WWE no longer needed them. It wasn't because they had to slash their budget.

    Apparently it is a big issue this evening with the freebeats (I hate the term "deadbeats", because they're very much alive) because apparently WWE has cracked down VERY hard on some of the more popular sites. So we'll probably see a lot of fallout from this in the coming week.

    Hey man would you pay $40-$60 for a PPV? and Multiply that by the 12 PPVs.Thats ALOT of green to watch men pretend to hit eachother.

  • Stealing is ALWAYS WRONG. However those who rationalize it just because they want Free PPV have a criminal bent to their thinking and to my knowledge can not change unless they change their hearts, minds and souls to a higher ethical way of being. Peace&Love be with you my dear friend. Keep setting the good example. ~M~

    Oh get over it. Most PPV's are not worth $40. I'm sure they "repay" the money back by buying merchandise and going to shows and some of us can't afford $40 a month.

    It's definitely wrong. There's no excuse for stealing a PPV when you can either go to a sports bar and see it for free or come on line and get play by play results for free.

    It is wrong to do it,but its like giving a kid a new toy and telling them not to play with it. If its there of course they are going to keep watching.Why pay for it when you can get it for free.
