Pirated games

That and being so open with using the word "pirated" is just so taboo. Refer to them as "backups".

 

May seem a bit anal, but that word makes some cringe. My "backups" aren't pirated, because I believe real piracy is one where you are SOLD a backup and someone on the street is making money off it.

Your "backups" are piracy if you downloaded them.

No, piracy is when when someone sells backup copies for monetary gain.

 

Dowloading CD images is simply illegal downloading.

Also known as "Bootleging."

 

The music industry knows that term pretty well.
