They're not getting money from second hand copies. They took quick action against some unofficial Jazz game, yet haven't bothered with the abandonware sites, and others have asked about if they mind...it shows I don't think they care. But would I buy if TSF was redistributed though? Yes.

"B-but it's the law!" The whole "point" against piracy is that the company loses money. But with a game being out of print, they won't be gaining money either way. It's Epic's responsibility to redistribute it and game distribution is easier than ever nowadays.

TL;DR: People will pirate the less available a product is, and I hope this shakes the attention that Epic should either just make it freeware, or put it on GOG.
