i'm completely legal, well i must admit i "tried" some software out when i was younger, but as you get older you learn to appreciate the work people have done to bring you good software/music, just like you do when buying hardware.
many people have problems understanding that even digital stuff which they cannot touch does have a price, i heard this from so many people...
sure they can understand buying a car, because well it's a solid thing which can drive you around, it's there everyday. but software is on your laptop, only there if it's switched on and only virtual, so why pay money for something that does not "exist", which was created by people who you don't know anyway?
i think that is a big issue of the internet evolution and especially artists are disadvantaged.
long story short: i now buy my music at the online stores and paid for my dj software and encourage everyone to do the same, especially if you are getting money out of it.
