I'm one of those people who will download a game first to see if I like it, then actually buy it if I like it (call it a three-day trial period). I mean, with the high prices of games of games nowadays, I don't want to waste my money on something I don't like. The demo sometimes works alright, but for example, in Rome: Total War, the demo was crap, the game was not. But I don't want this to turn into a filesharing discussion.
Suprnova going down is/was unfortunate, but there are plenty of other sites out there with torrents (BTW, just the site, not Bittorrent itself, was shut down [img]tongue.gif[/img] ). They may be a bit harder to find, but they're there all the same.
Here's a link to the 'official' FAQ:
