Yes. That is revenue, not profit. And it’s still true and the point still stands. You’ve done nothing to argue against that point. You’ve just made dishonest comparisons libraries and lending things to friends which isn’t the problem.
You have that backwards. Without revenue, you can’t have profit. Revenue is the money you take in for your work. Profit is the revenue you collect for your work minus the expense of what it cost to create it.
Clearly, I’m dealing with either a child or a moron. Either way, I’m not continuing this discussion with someone that doesn’t even understand the difference between profit and revenue. It’s not possible to have a conversation on the nuances of piracy and theft if you don’t even understand the basics.
So uhh… how do you take revenue from someone if they are negative profit…? Cant take something if they dont have a profit first.
Yeesh.
It’s also completely irrelevant, revenue/profit/money, all wind up being more or less the same in the end. The fact that you think a distinction makes any difference in this is laughable.
You really can’t converse without insulting can you?

You understand that without profit you won’t have revenue…. Yeah?
This is the stupidest fallicous argument ive seen in a long time. Arguing revenue and profit aren’t related. Wow.
