IIRC Ubuntu ships with proprietary drivers etc. so technically any channel that is not officially sanctioned under the license terms of said drivers would technically result in a pirated copy. Also Dotan, it's sad that you've taken that approach. I would have hoped that you would adhere to the spirit of what I was trying to say which is, "do the right thing". OK, I'm perhaps cynical about the benefits of reporting pirate sites etc. as I do not think that removing the means is the solution, but that is not to say that I do not agree with your original sentiment.
