sounds like a good idea to me. it's about time something stepped up to protect software companies and developers.
stealing software is EXACTLY like ripping a site or work of design/art. NO difference.
and it still amazes me the lack of respect and hypocracy that the so-called designers here have.

I saw the CEO of macromedia the other day and he looked like he needed a really good feed.
I mean they're obviously making barely enough money to survive...

i will say one thing, even with them cracking down on piracy and preaching about how it causes the price of software to increase (the ole 'stealing hurts everyone' line), the price of software will never go down. they charge as much as they do because they know some people will pay. this is just a way to get more money out of the ones that don't.
i've been developing software for a few years now and i don't care how good your product is, if you overcharge, people will steal your product. (and yes, i know some will do it even if it's priced fairly)

oh I bet a lot of poor countries are stuffed with softwae copies...good for them!
The Adobe and MM guys aren't exactly dying from starvation...

a lot of other countries don't have software protection laws.
romania and china are two that come to mind.
either way, if you easily can afford it, there's no reason you shouldn't buy it.

don't you think that these kind of "illegal copies" are useful to the compagnies. I'm thinking about flash, why is it the reference ? 30 days trial period ? But any way if you earn money with I think you could have a registered copy.
