said by KrK  :Examples like this happen all the time. As a teenager, and with limited funds, it's common to pirate a lot of stuff. OS/Utils/Apps you name it.... However later on as a "Computer Guy" or "Tech" it's common to help out businesses who then buy a bunch of licenses of various utilities and applications that same "Computer Guy" recommends. The amount of studios that switch from protools because of assistant engineers/interns that became proficient in Nuendo on their home systems never ceases to amaze me. Something tells me young unpaid interns that are computer literate grab H2O's copy off of usenet opposed to paying 2.7K for the software + plugins though.
Linux is free. Tons of linux software is free. Yet people still take the effort to grab, and distribute warezed copies of windows. If I'm a microsoft executive, isn't this a good thing? It means my competition is a joke. If people are downloading my software by the gallon and not paying for it, when there are free alternatives that millions of people are working on, and I _STILL_ make a sick profit.. I must be doing something right.
