Er, pirating.
I've paid for all of my subs and never gave any of them away.
I do, however do things like listen to audio books on youtube and put music on my ipod off of other peoples itunes that I never paid for.
I'm fine with AP code activating if I pirate your stuff, but I'm not fine with it activating from me doing stuff that I'm okay with doing and I see it as normal, but you see it as piracy. Stuff that has nothing to do with your subs.
Your AP code should be based only on your stuff because I don't see anything wrong with listening to audio books on youtube instead of paying for them, and since I do that and have AP code running through my head now what? Is something bad going to happen to me now or what?
If you paid for all of your subs, and never gave them away, then you haven't committed piracy.
If you got one or more of them from a friend, without paying, and that friend then retained a copy... you have both committed piracy.
You really shouldn't be "fine with AP code activating if you pirate my stuff" because that's just foolish.
My AP code concerns my subs only. I'm not trying to change your tune on any product but my own. That isn't my concern.
But regardless of what you see as okay, if there is an imbalance of value exchange created concerning my programs and my intellectual property, then there is an imbalance of value exchange created, and that is the facts. And it activates AP code, and you don't want that.
Okay that makes me feel a lot better. I was worried that like every little thing I did was going to activate AP code like if I watched a movie I would get an urge to give back to the creators equal value that I got from watching the movie, or get a book from the library and all of a sudden I get an urge to get equal value to the author for the info I got from his book because in just those two cases out of infinite possibilities that's me getting value without returning equal value. I think you said somewhere that the AP code just educates us and I'm totally fine with it being there as long as it will never affect me in any possible way outside of your subs, because it's too opened for interpretation on what fair value would be and when to give it or not. Library example again, I could steal a book from Barnes & Noble and read it for free, and I could get the same book at the library and read it for free. Both cases I'm gaining value without returning it and these are just examples but I just didn't want to worry about every little thing I do. But yea, I don't pirate your subs, and the only free ones I've received were from you and I got ASC4g from a post on here but asc5g is free anyways so I wouldn't see that as pirating.
Also I have exchanged 2 subs before and deleted them off of my computer when I got my new ones but the two I deleted are still available for download on my account. Does that activate APcode because that's completely out of my control.
If you deleted the ones you no longer wanted, no.
