Never downloaded music, a movie, never watched a music video on Youtube?

having been in sales for as long as i have, i would hope i would of come across more info on this.

If you are really that good at convincing webmasters to pay for software and you take your "valuable" time to "defend" a giant like ADOBE, then try to convince 100,000 visitors, entering sites like pornbb dot org, or extreme-board, every single day and downloading COMPLETE SITE RIPS, thousands in $$, for FREE.... that they should actually PAY for it...

Yes, we talking about the same shit here..

Oh then you have missed out, they have talked about piracy on several occasions. They aren't saying, hey pirate us - but they recognized what piracy did for them.

They aren't the only software company, film company, producer, to make such claims.... at all. I have personally made millions directly from Pirating my own content.

Piracy sucks when it happens to you - but at the same time, it's a MAJOR information gateway, it creates entire Industries, it allows trash to be put away and the best to rise to the top - and it allows for everyone to play the game.


Fair use for example: "accounted for 23 percent of real economic growth"

http://www.ccianet.org/index.asp?sid...8&evtflg=False

"It found companies benefiting from limitations on copyright-holders’ exclusive rights, such as “fair use” – generated revenue of $4.7 trillion in 2007 – a 36 percent increase over 2002 revenue of $3.4 trillion."

While this is fair use, it really makes no difference... when we want to see how powerful this side of the 'net can be.

If anything Piracy made it harder for shit Companies to rise to the top simply because they have the marketing dollars and it allowed the proper Companies like Adobe to sling shot straight to the top....because that's what the people called for.

Do you think Adobe would rather have my $199 or just use a Keygen like most "students"?

Amazing how some of you are advocating piracy here

... with all the piracy hurting our business these days, you would think that's kinda hypocritical no?

Maybe it's lame to buy a license, but I think it's worth it, so let me be lame

No worries... I saw your quote.. I don't believe you, straight up.


I own my software and my music and damn straight, I have tested, listened and tried TONS of stuff online, before I buy it - almost 100% of the time. It would be impossible for me to know how much money this has saved me.... allowing me to invest my money back into my Company and not someone else's trash.

while piracy hurts in porn it also helps in small amount. If everyone stole photoshop adobe would be SOL, same with porn. But with a limited spread, it spreads the brand out... everytime someone sees idk bangbros on a tube site and likes it, it just keeps them with that brand... etc... too much piracy is bad for any company, or product but a certain amount can be just marketing and brand awareness....

unfortunatly porn is getting past the tipping scale

So because YOU are a thief, that means everybody else in the world must be one too?

By your logic I should run down to Best Buy and steal a bunch of their home theater stuff so I can make sure I like how it sounds in my own home and it works for me.

Also by your logic it's OK for surfers to steal content. I mean why would they buy a membership if they haven't tested, watched, and tried TONS of stuff online?

"That case of beer looks good but I can't see paying for if since I haven't tried it. Guess I will just steal a case of it then buy more in the future if it agrees with me."

Until today I had a decent amount of respect for you...Not that you care or it really matters one little bit....However you calling me a thief and a liar doesn't sit too well with me.

No offense, but you calling him a thief is just as out of line as him calling you a thief and liar.

well, i've yet to see any official adobe statement as such. and based on who their target market is and the quality of the product, the success of the product is based on the quality, not the fact that script kiddies can crack it and have that on their box to show off their hacking skillz eh.

Either you're a thief like me or a liar not like me, I'm not calling you both.

You can often try theater stuff from Best Buy for a bit and return it if you don't like it. Just like with most software you can try it free, with limits - however Best Buy doesn't give me limits other than time.

It is okay for Surfers to steal (ie duplicate) your content - you allow them to download it don't you? Did they sign an agreement with you? Did they take the Org copy from you?

Bars often let you try a Drink first before you buy it... I have many friends let me try what they have before I buy it.


If you don't like thief's, then why do you hang around who you do? Don't you sip drinks with the same people I do?

Right...Because the word "Piracy" originated from people copying things from one ship to the other.

I didn't catch the official statement either.... then again they have probably made about a million and it's not like any of us read them all. However, as stated it was in a Seminar that they said it.

When Photoshop first came out, it wasn't really better than Paint Shop Pro - actually it wasn't a "web graphics creator", it was a Photo editor and sold as one.

Photoshop was later pirated... mostly by Graphic Designers, Design Companies and Web Developers - which turned around and purchased it, after it was made better.

Anyone else, didn't care to learn how to use it, so they weren't a factor either way.

You are so full of shit it's beyond stupidly funny.

No, I do not allow surfers to download my content. I'm sure they find ways to do so but do I allow them to? Absolutely not.

"Bars often let you try a Drink first before you buy it... I have many friends let me try what they have before I buy it."

Are we talking about your friends or the bar? I have NEVER had a bar tell me I could try the drink first unless they were doing a promotion of some sort.

It seems to me that you find any and every way you can to manipulate any and all systems you can. That says a lot about your character.

My issue is not as much with you being a thief as it is with you calling me one.

And yes, you have indirectly called me BOTH a thief and a liar.

I sip drinks with all sorts of people. That doesn't make them my friends and also doesn't mean I know all their dirty little secrets. I limit my everyday activities to a very select group of people for exactly this reason.

Since you like to generalize about people though....Some of the people that you and I "sip drinks with" also snort cocaine. By your miserably flawed logic that means you and I do as well...Which, you most likely do however I never have. Never felt the need to steal any so I could try it either.

I suppose one can't steal gold from a ship either because that would be piracy and not stealing. You're a fucking idiot.

Piracy is stealing. PERIOD.

http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/201...-piracy-video/

You have made a conscience decision to be a thief and proudly promote that fact. Congrats to you and yours.

I'm out.

hindsight is another matter though eh, in hindsight, adobe realizes that their early product was easy to pirate and pass around the office. but that certainly does not mean it was planned or strategy or condoned. it simply means that at that time there was much to learn about combating it.

adobe wouldn't of incorporated all the anti-piracy code the product has and it also would not of introduced products such as ps elements and educational versions if it were actively marketing/advocating its product via piracy.

Really? You can ask for a sample at almost any bar or pub.

Well, I don't believe you haven't ever downloaded software, music, watched a tube stream, watched a music video, checked something on spike or some network like that which is all pirated...

... it's just complete bullshit - and nobody is going to believe you.

Since you like to generalize about people though....Some of the people that you and I "sip drinks with" also snort cocaine. By your miserably flawed logic that means you and I do as well...Which, you most likely do however I never have. Never felt the need to steal any so I could try it either.
The point was you lost respect for me because you think trying things is stealing, when your "FRIENDS" that you hang out with from show to show - are far worse than anything I have done when 'testing' software....

Piracy is stealing. PERIOD.

You have made a conscience decision to be a thief and proudly promote that fact. Congrats to you and yours.

Well, I don't believe you haven't ever downloaded software, music, watched a tube stream, watched a music video, checked something on spike or some network like that which is all pirated...

... it's just complete bullshit - and nobody is going to believe you.

The point was you lost respect for me because you think trying things is stealing, when your "FRIENDS" that you hang out with from show to show - are far worse than anything I have done when 'testing' software....
Please mix me a Long Island so I can try it before I buy it. Right.

I lost respect for you because you called me a thief and a liar, not because you are those things yourself.

Name ONE "friend" of mine who steals. I'm waiting........

Not that I will believe you as you've already lied in this thread at least once.

They give a shot worth of beer or a bottle (shot of) on he shelf.. if you want to try a LI, ask your friend to try his.

You called me a thief first big boy... once you stepped over the line, it was fair game.

You have the same friends I do, we have sat next to them - next to each other. Just pick one.

My friends don't drink LI's. Maybe I should steal one from the table next to us?

You stepped over the line and called everybody a thief. Then you admitted to being one yourself. Now you want to try to justify calling me one by saying I said it first?

WTF man? Are you 7 or what?

Seriously...STFU.

Sure you could ask the hot girls next to you. Maybe if you tip well, the bartender will give you a free one? That happens too...

I didn't call everyone a thief, I said "100% of us in this thread have used stolen software" - I don't think it's stealing unless you keep it, use it, and never pay for it - then you stole it. I can't say who did that, so I didn't call anyone a thief.

However you did get all butt hurt about it, and called me a thief.. and I simply went with it, cause if I am a thief, you're a liar.

OK

What has Nikki Licks ever stolen?

What has Brad Mitchell ever stolen?

What has StuartD ever stolen?

What has Deej ever stolen?

I can go on and on but I see no need as you have no fucking clue WTF you are talking about. If you grow up in the ghetto surrounded by thieves then you are likely to become one yourself. That doesn't mean you WILL become one as people are given free will and some of us...not you...make the better choice.

Wow. Really? This is how you want to twist things?

If you stole it, copied it, downloaded it...If you didn't pay for it and it wasn't meant to be free from the company who made it then YOU FUCKING STOLE IT. Doesn't matter if you stole it for 23 seconds or 2 years.

I've known you for a number of years now and I never knew you were this kind of piece of shit. Not only to steal things but to actually try to justify it in any way you can. Thank you for showing your true colors.

What irked the fuck outta me, is you buy font discs at the store for $20 and then you go online and all the fonts are free. They just rip the discs and upload em no diff than torrents free progs etc...

Fonts are the one thing people just seem to think have no copyright LOL ;)))))

"DVDS BAD, Mp3S EVEEEEL but FONTS, oh noes fonts for free!" ;)

I have some fonts here that I've paid hundreds of dollars for.
I make absolutely certain they never slip out to the Internet.

I have some software that cost me $4k for a single application. That one has a hardware key, so it can't be pirated. Some I have with other measures (not a hardware key) that run a few thou for a single app. I wonder why those guys never let their software hit the pirate sites for some of that free marketing.

Oh, I know you on the level homie. Its most people in this thread I bet have hundreds/thousands of fonts, and I doubt they spent the bucks for them - they got them from a "free font" site. Designers do pay for them, but others? Very rare, if ever.

So again, you have "NEVER" downloaded anything that wasn't yours? never watched an online movie, never watched a music video on youtube, never downloaded an mp3, and as pointed out above, you have always paid for your fonts?

BULLLLLLLL FUCKKKKING SHIT!

Again... I did pay for some, others I deleted but all did get downloaded first. Same with music, I have checked out a few songs online, then purchased what I wanted or the CD. I have found movies and cartoons that you can't rent or buy in America, watched the entire thing online, then purchased the series.

Nothing that I own is stolen, it's all purchased.

Sorry if you're confused on what things actually mean in the real world and not your made up fantasy land in your head.



I have said this shit on here from day one and never hid a damn thing.. my true colors are honesty... I cant' say the same about others on here.

Back when I first started out, I downloaded it like 95% of everyone else. Eventually, I decided that since I was finally making some cash, I'd buy it for the updates and customer support. I would never buy another copy, since I dropped way to much on it when I did buy it (I bought the entire suite, not just photoshop). I've more than made my money back on it by now. There is a 0% chance I would buy it straight away if starting out all over again, I'd do what I did last time. Download it, get succesful, then buy it :P

The support must be AWESOME, right? Do they read off the computer screen or out of the tech manual?

I've got many, many thousands of dollars wrapped up in not only software but image, video, & audio stock as well. The benefit to possessing those pesky licenses for this material becomes evident when, for instance, someone comes out of the clear blue sky and accuses you of ripping a Snoop Dogg audio composition (song), and you can prove it is original work, and that you have license to the raw materials. (as well as the software used to create it.)

I hope there aren't any of those teabaggers downloading pirate-ware. Piracy could be seen as "spreading the wealth" and we wouldn't want any of that evil Socialism going on. Capitalism is the reason why stuff like this is so expensive.
Expensive software, therefore, must = Proof that capitalism is alive & well.
