i realized that many mobile users are SEARCHING for software for their fones, most luckly reason for the search is to be able to do anything without using a pc;-). now, the question is: DO YOU WANNA SAY OR DO YOU WANT EVERYTHING FOR FREE?

Sorry to take the hard line here but if you want something, you should pay for it.
Why? Because ultimately piracy will hurt YOU! If businesses and individuals don't recieve any money for their products and hard work, they wont be able or willing to do it any more. This results in less decent software being released, meaning that you won't be able to find pirated versions of anything that's any good.
I'm not saying that I'm squeaky clean but being in the line of work that I am, I know lots of developers who have suffered as a direct result of piracy. One very talented programmer I know even had to close his business and get a job in a factory because his reasonably priced (and very well known) application ended up all over the torrent sites. After just a few weeks, the revenue dropped to a level that meant he could no longer afford to live.
So it's not just businesses whinging about piracy because it dips into their huge profits. It can and does do harm.

If it is freeware then ok. I do not agree in not paying for software that is chargable, it is stealing.
