Walking into a store and helping yourself to what you want is called "stealing", Using cracked software is no different. So all you need to do is ask yourself we deciding wether to buy or steal some ones work on a program is "do I want to be a criminal"? very simple choice isnt it!
The question comes to "are you stealing it from the store?" or "somebody else is giving it to you for free?"
How on earth do you interpret using cracked software as someone giving it too you!
If you had to crack it you had to overide mechanisims put in place to try to prevent people stealing you work!
Using cracked software is theft plain and simple, you can soothe your consience all you like with if's but's and maybe's but it cant change facts.

Do you buy a new car without taking it for a test drive? no.
I will download a lot of trial versions and have a look before I buy. Equally, some of the programs don't have trial versions, so if you're gonna spend over £100 on a program you're not sure about, why spend on it without trying? I will download cracked versions of these to have a look at. If I like it, I'll dump the cracked version and buy it.

How can they ban the sites? the sites don't do anything wrong. It's the users who host the material. the site just provides a means of file tranfer. (talking limewire & stuff here, yes there are sites that host it and shouldn't)
Didn't that answer your question either? Jeez, chill dude!

I used to pay for everything made of bits. If I didn't want to pay for it, I'd look for an open source alternative or refrained from using it.
However, this is Belgium where, since not very long, our beloved government (because they are probably reading along) has declared that on every blank CD, DVD or whatever I buy, a "copy tax" has to be paid. So, since I'm considered a criminal anyway (because I have to pay the tax, regardless of what I do with the media) I've dcecided that I couldn't care less about my principles.
My motto is now: Check if you can get cought. If yes, do not copy. If no, ...

You assume too much my friend not ALL PC users STEAL other peoples work. I dont, never have done, never will do, I ran a software house and it cost a lot of money to develop good products, why should some scumbag just take it because he or she feels they have a right to do so? The argument the products cost too simply does not add up Rolls Royce cost a lot lots of people want them but dont go around taking them and using them as their own just because the feel they cost too much! only an idiot would follow that line of justification for stealing.

Lets be practical in this forum - those who dont pay for the good quality 3rd party Px00 software contribute to having nothing more than what SE gives us. Is that what we want?

because i didnt get an answer:
The films that people download here, and the music songs, they are illegal?
We are downloading things that are property of other people, without paying anything to the people that contributed to the making of the films.
SO one of the biggest threads in esato :
