How intelligent is it for companies to go after people who trade and know your program, that are not paying _now_? Seems a waste of resources attacking who might be your customer, in both money and good-will. Example: I'm in school for drafting/design tech. Due to the school which I am taking classes, we learn Autocad and Solidworks. Both have student versions available, and both are with nasty "We'll send you the serials sometime next week". So I went onto the local pirate archive and grabbed a copy of both programs. Half an hour later, they're installed and they work flawlessly. Fellow students are still waiting for the serials through email sometime next week. I do think its different for a for-profit enterprise to go out and pirate everything under the sun. If you make money, you should pass the buck, so to speak. Read my history to rehash the 1 day old long drawn out argument about DRM. No sense in repeating all of that.
