stonebro: GoG is seemingly facing very little piracy. Very few of the games are available on torrent sites, at least.
If anything it's more proof that the GoG model really works.
Let's get this out of the way.
This is really, really not true. I know of several sites that have the *entire* GOG collection available, and they still get added to whenever a new one comes out. It's out there, and it's being pirated.
Was it condemned? Yes, in the beginning especially, which is a good sign for Gog certainly, because it shows they have a lot of goodwill. However, since then it's basically gone and changed. It's not really condemning anymore, you just see people who say that if you really like the game, or end up liking it, buy it on Gog, or heck, you see a lot of people in those places actually *say* they already bought it on Gog.
But don't be fooled, these things are being pirated far more than they are being sold, I have no doubt about that. However, I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it's probably helped them with added exposure and the quality of the installers. Some people will pirate, regardless of anything, and now they're pirating the GOG version rather than the older versions out there. However there's also people who see the low price on Gog and are now simply getting it legit from GOG.
Long term, I'm not really sure what it'll do to GOG, but for now, I'd say it leaking into the pirate scene has probably done more good for them than bad.
