That's a good question really. It depends on what it is that one is 'addicted' to.

I personally think an addiction is really only a 'disease' if it's harmful to the 'addicted' or anyone else, like when people have literally killed because their stupid WoW account was deleted.

But if it's something like say "I'm addicted to watching movies" it's not hurting someone unless their neglecting themselves or someone else.

It's only a disease if they let it take over their lives.

I'm quite obsessed with games myself, but when oh say Fallout New Vegas decides to crash on me (Often does D: ) I don't go cussing like a sailor and throw the controller at the wall or some other silly thing like that. Sure I get annoyed, but I simply sigh, and either restart the PS3 or go take a break and do something else.

It's mostly the lack of self control that makes an addiction to something dangerous.
