People like you keep proces high and slow down development, and don't even try to deny it, you know I am right about this one!
BITCHES!

Corporate greed is insatiable. Don't believe the lies they tell you about how prices would remain lower if everyone where honest. Theres always been a black market and there always will be a black market, it's signs of a healthy capitalist system. Without it you would live in an even more corprate dominated world than you do now.

i have to agree that radium are very professional - but really, having a registered version (once you try things out properly) entitles you to updates (i cant say tech-support for steinberg cos that'd be a total myth !!)....so sure radium are ok to really evaluate a soft... but it's way better to buy it... after all - 300 for most of the top-end soft's is pretty good when you consider what it gets you
and shado, you gotta expect posts like the above when this subject is breached

As for the argument of corporate greed, the people that actually WORK at Steinberg (programmers, designers etc) are as far as you and I know honest harworking people that deserve rewards for their hard labour, the same goes for the company itself. And you know they DESERVE their cash cos otherwise you'd not be trying to get that cracked copy of CUBASE so hard. And if stuff is too expensive then buy cheaper stuff from the competition or get a (Better) Job so you can afford it. I mean you don't go and steal a ferrari because you think they should be cheaper than they are or because you think their service sucks, right? No, you buy whatever you can afford and wish to have. And by buying stuff from the competion (or nothing at all) you 'force' Steinberg or any other company to make stuff cheaper, give better service etc. THAT's capitalism, what you want and do is some form of a-social anarchy and has nothing to do with healthy capitalism at all. It is sickening and certainly not something to praise, those talented people at radium should devote their time writing cool software like hammerhead or rubberduck or something instead of ripping other peoples work.
And by the way, my dad was an artist during his lifetime and people bought his work just because they liked it and could afford it.
Keep Groovin'

crackers from this page.. I mean this is a music page nog a page for freeloaders, right. It's people like this that 'force' companies like Steinberg to use a dongle protection on their software, cause' that's the only reason it's there (illigal copying).
Keep Groovin' (even on your cheap synth + cheap software!)

Kilo: isn't there a way to force people to use an emailadress (so you can always anonimously read the chatboxes but need to fill in you name and email to post a reply etc.? this would keep a out a lot of pretenders/crackers, verbal abusers etc....

i do agree about stuff like Gregsons X-edit... but then he programmes stuff for the ministry of defense as a job, so i doubt he's short of a bob or two... but still, that is sad....
this whole subject needs to be looked at in a detatched way (like most things in life)... i dunno if there is an answer really... human nature dictates that even if the s/w is 5 dollars, people will still go for the free one if they can... humans are essentially greedy and devious as their primary characteristics... but, as the basis of the capitalist world you talk about is simply ripping people off, IF at all possible... then it's all part of the game really is it not ??.... I truely beleive that companies loose very little sales with cracked s/w..... i truely believe that anyone who can afford it.. does buy the real thing... the crack users wouldn't buy it anyway if there was no crack available.... i beleive that...
