Meh, who cares about morality? Charging 40-60 bucks for a game you'll beat over a weekend(not the case with FF games) isn't terribly moral either. If I really wanted a game and it just came out, I definitely would get a bit of P2P software to do the job. However, if it costs less then 30 bucks, preferably around 20, I'll definitely consider it being a worthwhile investment.

Lets look at EA for example. You pay 40 dollars for one of their XBOX games. Two years later they shutdown the servers and you can no longer play it in multiplayer, while they didn't state anywhere that the game was sold with limited multiplayer in the first place. In a way, this is robbing the user.

Anyhow, I'm sure that a whole lot of you will disagree with me here, but really morality and buying products from big enterprises like EA or SE really shouldn't be anywhere close to each other. For those who'll advocate for SE now, remember that in FFXI you're only allowed to have one charater and have to pay monthly fees(long live GuildWars). Do you really believe that this other character you can purchase will cost 9 USD of database memory for SE? Please...
