Hehe, this thread turned from discussing pirated software to discussing Star Trek.
Honestly I agree with Rob with that they will never stop piracy. It is so common now that I think it part of this world we live in.


Piracy isn't that bad. I watch TV shows on television and then later buy the DVD. Just because you get something for free doesn't mean you don't end up paying for it in the end.

There is a game producer named Stardock which never copy protects their games. Galactic Civilizations II was ranked the #1 selling game overall, and this was despite the fact that they had no copy protection. Now what do you think about piracy and copy protection when a company that does not have any copy protection is the best seller? I think this is a good proof that the damage of piracy to the software industry is overestimated and exagerated.
