wow... looks like some people have been stressing on this thread all weekend. Personally, I've never had to buy a font. The place I work for does a lot of science based work, and i can usually use something i already have, or a free font from someplace like dafont.com. If one of our clients demanded a certain font though, we'd have no problem billing them for it and then using it afterward. I don't do a lot of freelance, so it's never really come up there either. You should never HAVE to steal a font, there is always a workaround.

I just read about a hundred posts on this thread.
I do understand everything people like Vena stand for.
And I admire their vision.
I just graduated, I owne a mac, a pc and some illigal software like photoshop, flash and illustrator.When I go freelance I will buy photoshop and Illustraotr believe me. I don't want to get caught with that shit. I mean it.

foundries should lower the cost of type.
i.e. $397.00 us dollars to buy the complete Gotham family from Hoefler type foundry. So, thats 538,30$ canadian dollars.
If u were a canadian student, would you buy this font family at 538$???

Foundries should lower the cost of type and a Lexus should cost as much as a Hyundai.
You don't get to set the prices that someone else will charge for the goods or services that they provide.
You do, however, get to take your business elsewhere.

With all the respect:
This argument is stupid and pointless, ALL OF US (and by that I mean graphics designers) have used other peoples fonts at some point, and some of us still do.
Fonts are to designers what air is to humans, so should I start a thread like "I hate humans that breathe air"
