If you can afford a smartphone, you can afford to buy the software for it.

Everybody tries to live "beyond their means", but reality is, perhaps they should be running a standard regular phone with java midlets.

And I have a right to say this because I am a programmer.

Part of the business is expecting losses from piracy, that is why we try and contact people and hope they will be nice enough to remove our links.

Now, there are circumstances where piracy is almost impossible to avoid,
I will tell you my personal story. I found an awesome program, only to find
the company had GONE OUT OF BUSINESS, so I had no choice in this
situation but to get the program another way, as I had no way to purchase it in my situation.

This is why I started downloading MP3s in the beginning, I wanted bootlegs and imports that were simply not legal or available to purchase AT ALL, leaving no choice but to opt for torrents or whatever means.

I have always thought it was stupid they don't go ahead and license the bootleg material and make it available, after all they don't need permission they already own the intellectual property!!!

Also the music manufacturers LIED to us. Am I the only one that remembers how after tapes came out, they justified the extra cost of buying a CD player by saying they will be able to produce the Compact Disc for cheaper and therefore sell it cheaper - then LIED to us and sold them for HIGHER price????

Anyways I digress.

Support your small programmers, we live off scraps, we do this because we love to do it. Keep us going!

Thanks.
