I guess that's why I came to the US. Money money money. If you have the right skills that is.
Not sure what you mean by the criminals Faralas. Most of the criminals I've seen here are elected.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
My opinion in cracked/pirated CD's is that if the damn things weren't so easy to copy onto in the first place there wouldn't be this problem. DVD's have a better protection system. If you buy a copy of a DVD its usually sub-par visually so its easier to tell.
Also, there will always be a market for copies if someone wants to buy them so its also a question of people's morals.
I simply don't buy many copies because I think they have crappy quality. Did I use my friend's cracked version of MS office? Hell yeah! Totally overcharged peice of software. Then again we ain't talking about computer CD's here. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
