Bolshevist..in those examples you mention computers in general and not the software.

Can't really pirate a computer.

Let's say john doe saves enough too buy a computer...$1000 for his first ever. He probably will get it with windowsxp and MS Office standard (cause the sales men sold it too him). He has the software, not piracy involved.

I believe piracy because more rampant after your first initial purchase. Yet that's why MS and other companies offer upgrades.

You put $600 down for Pshop 5 years ago, but you want the latest...just put $149 down now.

I still believe...you can pirate, you can evaluate, but as soon as you make a dollar off that program...you buy it, or you get a legal version of it. Example..you are a college student...yeah go ahead and learn 3dsmax 5 on a pirate copy, but when you learn...don't tell studios you would render for them at home...go to their shop and work on their legit copies.
