Demon's Souls was released because of high imports, wasn't it? So you'd rather pirate the game and benefit no one instead. No company can "make" you pirate a game unless you have no control over your own actions.

I don't like region lock much either. I think it has to do with keeping track of stats, but handhelds have usually been free from region lock since people buy games when they travel. It's absolutely bizarre that the 3DS isn't region free.
