 | The Truth of Piracy All these figures company toss out are over inflated. Why.. Well they assume Jo SMo who steals a copy of photopshopped.. priced at about 900 Dollars. Well if he gives it to ten of his friends... Said company assumes thats 9000 dollars of lost revenue. The reality this is bullshit. MAYBE JUST MAYBE 1 out of 500 people would actually have bought this program for the cost. Most people dont have 900 dollars for a single application. SHould piracy be eradicated (theoretically), people would stop using those expensive programs, and find a bunch of cheaper ones to do the job. Its the truth. So back to earth, if 500 people pirated a 900 dollar program, being fair, lets assume those lost 2 customers or 1800 Dollars. Figure that on a scale of o 100,000 people 900 x 200 (2 out of 500) and you got a lost revenue of $180,000 for 100,000 people pirating it. See how the real numbers add... Now lets start worrying about real social issues and stop enriching people that got plenty of money, and time on their hands.. The little guys been fucked enough. |

 | if they wouldn't have bought it and would have bought another cheaper software instead, then are they stealing from the cheaper software's maker?
if they wouldn't have bought it, they shouldn't be using it.
stop using it or use the trial versions. quit pirating and support the free &// cheaper &//open source software.
and quit softening the figures with your rationalizations. -- noogoo vs. the copyright law - »noogoo.blogspot.com/ |

i see a serious flaw with your rationalization, most people are too poor to afford them. it is too easy to reproduce, it is overpriced. people will continue to share if it's convenient for them. your opinion on this matter will not stop them nor will it change your mind. good lcuk thought. |

 | if they're too poor to afford stuff they should be working or something instead of playing around with pirated material. if it's overpriced, don't buy it, you don't need it. if people will continue to share if it's convenient, the government will make all those czars and people will sue. -- noogoo vs. the copyright law - »noogoo.blogspot.com/ |
