"Content" can be in all sorts of forms, I don´t see why they would treat illegally obtained images any different than illegally obtained videos.

This is where the saying, "Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's free."

It's kind of like being in the grocery store. Just because you can pick something up, doesn't mean you don't have to pay for it.

By definition it is. Downloading means to copy or transfer data from one computer to another. And 'data' can be anything, including images.

Cheers for the input guys, just wondering then is all the content on this site paid for maybe there are special arrangements made with studios etc.. Perhaps I'm being naive here but I'm interested to know how the business model works.
