dgtl_rchtct: that's the way thing work in latinamerica, becuase after all, not to many people have fast internet conenction, so download a program can turn out to be very expensive too.
Most of the times I'm lucky enough download what I'm looking for. But not everyone has that luck and that opportunity.
Sorry to piss you off, I'm not saying that what people do here is right, but but how economy is going in latinamerica is much harder than in Europe or US.for example: from home to work (just 5 blocks) is see at least 6 people selling something on the street and at least 3 people asking for money EVERYDAY. So what I'm trying to point out is that ,yes, it's wrong to to download for free something you should be paying for or buy a pirate copy. but is true as well that prices in music and software are ridicously high and don't reflect what economy is today in most of this countries. And ok, you can live without music, but if you need a software to work to make a living, but what you win from that work will never be enough to buy the software, you end up in a circle, you can't but the software, you can't work, you can't work, you can't buy the software. And there is where P2P enters.
I would be very happy to buy all the original software, but I just can't and 90% of people living in LatinAmerica can't either.You know, the idea of musicians selling their music directly on internet, I believe is the best solution so far to end file sharing (wich is stealing, no matter how you put it, you are getting for free something you should be paying for)
