And Furious' is who? Is he an authority? Why keep getting off-topic all the time & making me do it once with my nerd posting.

Nerd is a decent word.
That's how you hurt a developer.
By using non-sense logic?

Now you are coming to line.. To talk about your proprietary software, Feel safe no one will have time to crack it.
Talking about small softwares, why we pirate is suppose you need a conversion tool for your work(personal/official). You are going to use it only once, then done. No free version is not available/ Demo will convert only 5-10 pages(just an example). What will you do?
If you tell you will spend $50 for one time use only.. You are ......!!! (no word to express my surprise)
And I personally dont think piracy will unemploy the developer just like selling of one more copy will not pay the developer a bit more. I am a software developer, but my salary is constant whether a sleep in office or work till midnight. Though it is offtopic, and many reason you can say defending it.

Looks like you're not reading all posts in this thread. Read furious_gamer's post on previous page. If no one's going to buy, piracy doesn't hurt.
And again, I recommend you to talk to some software/game developer about this.

No. On Ten Sports. The channel I paid for "LEGITIMATELY"
That's what the people who pirate stuff think.
I will not go for that software which I cannot afford. I will go for some open source alternatives.

From your local cable operator...
That's height of piracy, if you are not using any STB.

And they are right too. I'm not a pirate and I said that.

No , I just installed STB. BTW I didn't know about that. How is one pirating stuff when getting from local cable operator? Can you explain?

You really can't expect an Indian to pay for anything other than an AV, and I believe this is because of lack of awareness. I know Microsoft guys work for years day and night to develop an Operating System which people download for free. But because I know that they have been spending day and night for years over this software, I will try to purchase an original copy if I'm able to. Programs like dreamspark really help in this. I think companies should introduce an installment system (like Adobe already did) for their softwares. No one would mind paying 1000 rupees for 3-4 months rather than paying 4000 straight away.

I purchased only Ashes Cricket 2009. It was available at Rs. 229 only. And No, I didn't went for a pirated version to check out the demo.

In short, cable operator pays only a small portion of what he earns to the service providers/distributers and thus evades taxes too. STB doesn't let them do this.
So everyone on this thread was right! You don't own any other games? What about your OS?

Yeah, that dreamspark program is very good. I used Visual Studio Professional 2010 for free. They gave me the key.

About 8-10 years ago, ESPN cancelled the contract with my citie's distributor. The local cable operator simple installed TataSky and broadcasted ESPN from tatasky to cable TV.
