GameCube ISOs Released?

Mister.de writes "An online piracy group called "StarCube" has made ISO's of games like The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker available for download on the net. They are not publicly available to everyone, but are said to be hosted on private warez FTP sites. As of yet (6/14/2003) there is no way to actually play the games after burning to a mini-disc, but reliable sources say that there will be a hack for the GameCube released soon so that these illegal copies can be played. Also rumors do have it that the copied games can be played on the Panasonic GameCube, but that is unconfirmed. " The story came from Console-Gods originally.

    So how come you think is it stealing if I make my own game discs using my own blank discs and computer?

    ehh..??
    Let's see, you bake the muffins using your own ingredients. You create a CD using someone elses ingredients (software in this case).. and you fail to see why it is stealing?

    To make this accurate, it should be: I make my own muffins using my own oven etc, but I get all the ingredients for free from a shop, without the shop actually agreeing to give it to me.

    I agree with the first post saying that it's not stealing, but that it is a crime. However, in your case I fail to see the logic all together.
