It's interesting how attitudes towards this are so different across industries. Jeff Gerstmann is a fairly well known and well connected video game journalist and he straight up does streams where he plays emulators using romsets clearly downloaded from the internet.

For fair amount of time Giant Bomb was owned by CBS and during that time I saw plenty of emulators getting used.
