I stopped buying when the content industries declared war on my profession. When they started going after tinkerers for being inquisitive instead of the people who used the resulting code to actually commit copyright violations, that crossed a line for me and, because of that, I will never willingly give them another dime of my money.
To me, it's abundantly clear that people should be responsible for what they do with code, no matter who wrote it. Writing code should never be illegal.
