who the hell wants to pay 300 and something for software if the price was lowered then piracy would decrease.

how all of this people say it’s nature you don’t know how they work to make this program or just support you if you bought it what did you say,Guys?????!!!.

The piracy costs the Companies 48000 Millions of Dollars,we must appreciate the work.

and if you won’t buy it use a free software like Gimp Alternative to Photoshop or get Pixelmetor.

If you didnt buy the software in the first place where do you think the money is going to come from to keep the big companys going.
You shouldnt choose the illegal path even If you can’t offerd it, its the wrong way.
Programmers work so hard to make these programs for us and people just pirate them or download cracks. NO! That is just madly wrong and you should never do it.

Copyrights don’t protect labor, they protect royalties. Developers do the work once, then they sit back and turn into the richest people on earth. And the reason people are more likely to download software than to rip off a power tool from the local hardware store is because deep down they realize that someone had to actually manufacture, pack, ship, and stock the product they’re lifting whereas “sharing copies” of an obscenely priced copyrighted work over an Internet connection involves no labor or contribution on the copyright owners part whatsoever, so it’s not so much a matter of stealing as a matter of denying royalties on a capital investment, which is sort of like calling someone thief for not paying their banks obscene interest rate for use of their credit. No matter what the laws say, no matter what the sycophants say, no matter what the profiteers say about the unfairness of P2P sharing, everyday people just can’t get their head around the idea that they’re hurting someone and deserve to be jailed for passing information back and forth. These draconian copyright laws destroy lives to protect the greedy. Charge reasonable fees for software, and people will pay for it. Rip them off wantonly, and they will turn around and rip you off.

The problem with information is it’s just it’s nature to be duplicated, copied, modified… Physical objects on the other hand, take material that must be manipulated and gathered.

You can code a program once, but sell it a million times.

If you make a physical object, like a sculpture, well, you have to make it AGAIN to sell another thing of it, and most are sold for less than somthng like photoshop or a video editing program.

Piracy will never end. The fact is – It is so easy to pirate software, can take literaly 2 mins to crack a program worth 1k

I’m not a pirate by the way, yours sincerely,
