Indeed it could be argued that piracy HELPED the Amiga. When i got my first Amiga in 1992, it came with a pleathora of pirated games.
Without the abundance of cheap games (£2 per game plus 50p per extra disk) on the black market, I doubt I would have had many games at all, and would have got rid of the Amiga platform about 12 years ago.
Taking disks into school to copy/exchange disks with mates etc.
IMHO Commodore sold more Amigas because of piracy.
Be gentle.
