    Nonsense. You’re just continuing to be dishonest. You do not have access to their server. You destroyed the product you have. This is like saying that if you took a television and destroyed it that the TV isn’t gone because there are more TVs in the manufacturer’s warehouse.

    Then you’re proving my point that you’ve paid for the rights to a copy of that file

    No, I’m not. That’s not my argument so I’m not proving anything. You’re arguing a straw man and not what I’ve actually said.

    I guess you’re making up your own definition for ignoring too.

    Ok, well… bye.

      Doesn’t matter, the file still exists and has not been destroyed.

      You destroyed the product you have.

      I destroyed the disc. But if I made a backup, which you agreed is perfectly fine to do, then I still have a copy of the file.

      This is like saying that if you took a television and destroyed it that the TV isn’t gone because there are more TVs in the manufacturer’s warehouse.

      Ridiculous. I can’t make a digital backup of a TV. Those scenarios are not comparable at all.

      No, I’m not. That’s not my argument so I’m not proving anything. You’re arguing a straw man and not what I’ve actually said.

      Can’t refute the argument? Just call it a strawman!

      You said that borrowing a DVD and consuming the content isn’t stealing, while downloading a copy of it and consuming it is. I proved that to be logically inconsistent. Nothing about that is a strawman.

      Ok, well… bye.

      Better luck next time!
