Great ethics you have there skoda. What you're saying is analogous to "wh=
y bother buying a car for a bazillion [insert monetary unit here] when I =
can just steal one from the local parking lot?" You might be getting the =
pirated software "for free," but in reality, you and your kin are costing=
 the software industry so much money that one could run a small-ish count=
ry with it. Just because a computer program is less concrete than a car, =
it doesn't mean it's less illegal to steal software.
Try it out at your local (_LEGAL_) software vendor: see a program you lik=
e? Take the box and calmly walk out with it. You can tell the cops that y=
ou're not going to pay for something you can get for free.

I'm sorry for the rant, but I find it irritating that people defend softw=
are piracy. *Nobody* wants to pay for anything, but since we live in a fr=
ee-market capitalist society (most of us, anyhow) it's something we'll ha=
ve to cope with.

There, finished.
Have a nice day.
