Correct. Even if you own the original game, you're not allowed to own the rom, simply as it's not legal to make a backup of the original game. As the rom is already illegal, distributing it becomes illegal, as does downloading it. I still believe it to be a very stupid law (not being able to make a backup of software that you own), but it is indeed the law.

maybe they saw you selling the original in the MM

I'll be sure to get peerguardian on any of the family machines which use torrents from time to time

They will have to kill me first if they want me to stop watching Eva Angelina!
