I could get my cable through Shaw... or Telus... or Shaw... Decisions, decisions.

Yet you are still forced to pay for basic cable if you want TV. Unless you are a really big fan of HGTV, I do not see how you are letting this comtinue.
One thing I have noticed, is that the vast majority of people that argue piracy is perfectly OK, are people that have never owned a business, or been in a position where they rely on on revenue from an exclusive niche product to earn a living. I can guarantee you, if you were the inventor of splinkets and had invested half your life and your life savings in creating them, and a guy down the street had snuck into your shop overnight, stolen the mold, and was recreating 'splinkets' as 'splonkets' and giving them away for free, you would certainly take issue.
Again because he is giving them away to take he has not only stolen from you, he has irreparably driven the market value of splinkets down, and damaged your products value.
People that say "OMG a movie is 12 bucks that's sooooooooo expensive." fail to realize that 20 years ago, it was 9 dollars to see a movie. And we didn't have the same piracy issues then. WHen I go and see a movie, my thinking is "Holy crap, this thing cost 130 mil to produce, and I only have to pay 12 bucks to see it and watch it on a billionty inch TV with googolphonic sound? Sweet."
