If the quality is good, then would it make it all right if everyone in
your situation sent a donation to the movie studio equal to the
difference between the "pirate" price and the high street price? That
way they still get their royalties with no distribution costs, the
"pirate" is compensated for providing a socially useful service at
some risk to himself, the customer spends the same total amount as
usual, and the world is a better place. ;)
