Hi Clement, That is a valid point, but at the same time the issue here is that audio game developers are attempting to sell to a specialized market and piracy hurts them more than it does a company like Microsoft, Activision, EA Games, whatever. There are all kinds of costs in producing an audio game that insures that the game developer should make something for his time and effort and if he doesn't that game developer may end up spending more to make the game than he or she gets back in sales. That's why piracy is especially bad, and why the entitlement attitude that blind people should get something for nothing is ultimately self-defeating.
There are a number of blind gamers that want audio game developers to create games like those for the mainstream market, but at the same time they don't want to pay for it. If they pirate a game or expect it should be given to them for free then the developer isn't going to develop games for them. So they can thank themselves for blowing it for everyone. Cheers!
