not agreeing with the use or abuse of warez...we all know where that's at...but I'm sure there are plenty of people that do the exact same thing, obtain warez as a way to evaluate a program...especially when the developer has NO DEMO. Not saying its right, but CL, in this case, leaves themselves more open to this happening by not having an evaluation copy. Another problem that furthers warez use, is that with demo software, many times certain features are blocked, saves, exporting, etc...which basically makes the program useless for evaluation anyway, other than mainly learning the interface and a few features. I think the way to avoid a portion of warez use is by providing a full featured eval copy...timed and protected...just like CL originally did with P5....so that there is no way a normal person would ever crack it....then, if the person likes it, he sends the cash, gets the final key, and the full box is in the mail....sorta like shareware :) Not condoning warez, as its obviously an illegal undertaking...but I think companies could at least reduce it. There is no way it will ever be stopped completely... The real issue here is the realization of how many people think it is ok to use warez....illegal or not...or just don't care that they're stealing...what's wrong with people ???
