Hi there,
I would like to add my two cents if I may.
I download a lot of cracked/serials software, now I know its wrong and it bugs me sometimes. I'm not trying to justify my wrong doings but if I may explain why I do this.
Lets take the new SPB Mobile Shell, cost is USD 29,95. So for the US people this is a pretty fair price if you look at the average salary. For people living in the UK it equates to 15 pounds. Again looking at the average salary this is a fair price. Now I live in South Africa and this is eqaul to ZAR 234,00. That is a lot of money where the average income is below ZAR 6000,00. If I had to pay ZAR 50,00 then hell yeah, I would have no pirated software on my ppc. Even if you look at the fact that a lot of these companies offer no support in SA, I have to rely on site like this to get support on most of the stuff.
So yes, what I'm doing is wrong and I do feel guilty.
If anyone can give me a different way of looking at this I would love to here from you.
Thanks for listening.
