Try http://www.suprnova.org/ and look under app.

Cracked versions also available there
When Adobe bring the price of their products down to reasonable price, i.e. a couple of hundred dollars instead of "Microsoft" pricing, then people will stop for the most, downloading cracked versions. Yes, I know a few will continue to download pirated copies, but the majority who do not have programmers wages want the product at a decent price, not to pay for items like Gate’s mansion, or the Adobe boards Mercedes.

The cost of an item, high or not, is in no way justification for stealing it. You can’t afford a Ferrari, why haven’t you stolen one of those?

Chances are he doesn’t ‘need’ PS either – so why does he want to steal that? If he needs it, he wil find the money – Like I did for PS7. PS8 is out of the question, but thats their fault – I wouldn’t even want that piece of activated crap on my system.

Does this mean you are 100% clean, or just another thief with a louder drum? I have never seen or heard anyone without guilt, and I would like to see your photo to see what it looks like <g>

He doesn’t need photoshop either, there’s more than enough alternatives out there (Paint Shop Pro, The Gimp etc. etc).

So, are you a thief or just a moron?

I’ve always noticed (and been highly amused by) thieves who justify their ways by saying ‘everyone else does it’ and then saying they’re a liar if they don’t. Even if I were a thief (please note the usage of ‘even if’ which is not an admission of being a thief (like you) but a postulation on a possible reality) *I* wouldn’t be stupid enough to discuss and brag about it in a public forum where Adobe and other vendors can have access to your IP address….

And 20 years later, we will teach you not to lie on everything. And what you have are stealing now is muh much much more than the burger and many others you stole 20 years ago.

IOW, telling other a thief doesn’t mean you don’t steal *but* just a lying thief. Even if you pay for your Photoshop you still are a thief and no better than any other thief *except* lying. When you laying dead in your own coffin, you will become a dead thief (or "a poor lying dead thief").

Nope, you’re far too stupid to be able to spoof an IP address.

I find it fascinating that I, and many people like me, would never think of shoplifting a computer program from Staples or a CD from HMV. Yet we think nothing of bootleg disks.
I wonder if those high prices — I saw Photoshop 7 for C$999 a couple of weeks ago— are designed to compensate the company for the revenue lost to the bootleggers.
I’m even more surprised that the software companies have not come up with a fool proof security system.

i think it’s arguable that most piracy really doesn’t hurt companies like adobe and ‘May’ even help, not that i’m advocating piracy, mind you. i can see where piracy of the windows opsystem hurts M$, but does anybody really want anything else they make???? would you pay $100 for IE when mozilla beats the snot out of it and is free.
the people who steal and use PS are not the ones who would break out $700 for a copy anyway – But they may have talent and produce work that only increases the "want" for the product they use.

You would be surprised how many companies buy ONE copy and then use that on several machines. Sometimes they do this because they are thrifty and it’s too easy, sometimes simply because people don’t even realise this is illegal. I suppose that this is why Adobe is using activation. Not to stop the real thieves, because they get the crack and still steal Photoshop anyway. Not to stop the home user, because he will still not buy Photoshop if he can’t copy it, but to stop the use of multiple installations of one legal copy in the business environment.

I too don’t tell people to go ahead to use pirated copy, but I agree with you that piracy doesn’t seem to hurt (some) company like MS, Above etc. but helping them.

Me, if I didn’t have a $100 for FULL version of Photoshop when I purchased the scanner many years ago, I wouldn’t spend $600-700 (not even $400-500) to buy the first version of Photoshop, and wouldn’t upgrade to newer version etc.. So, I got my first Photoshop because the price was right, and upgraded (twice) because I got used with Photoshop that I don’t like to use other. Example, many people say Paint Shop Pro. is good (I think it may have more than what I need too), but since I always have Photoshop and know Photoshop pretty well, I wouldn’t use PSP even they give me for free, or they may have to pay me to use it (not because it’s bad but I will have to learn how to use it).

So, I wouldn’t give my blood to fight the for Adobe, and I don’t want to support Above to have more control of what I pay for either. So, if anyone happy with the activation then they can keep on smiling won’t bother me a bit, but me, I may have to use Photoshop 7 to add a smiling to my photo.

If you and Adobe just realize that even Photoshop is an expensive and the standard program *but* unlike Windows and Norton’s apps Photoshop isn’t one of the standard applications for manufacture/office so Adobe may not be able to copy other’s style of marketing.

IOW, Windows and some of Norton’s apps (like Anti-Virus) are on every systems *but* not Photoshop it may lucky to get to some department, and some employee just get it because the company pays for it, and they hear or know it’s one of the best graphic programs etc.. Photoshop may not get full use (not a requirement like CAD) or just for few employees to mess around with it etc..

Some photolab like Wal-Mart, Target, Wallgreens, SAMS’ etc. they may not even use Photoshop but use whatever program comes with the big expensive photo printer, or they wouldn’t want to spend lot of time fixing thousands of photos daily. IOW, Photoshop is somewhere in the middle, Photoshop is an OS, Anti-virus, System tool etc.. so it may need a different marketing style rather than causing trouble to the customers support them.

If you realize that Photoshop isn’t one manufacture/office applications like word processor, spreadsheet, database etc.. so the number of Photoshop get full use in some company is very low

well i used PaintShop Pro 5 (i think it might have been 4) for a while and liked it. i reently got the test copy of PSP8 and threw it out before loading it completely – it demanded i use IE 6 – i will not buy nor will i use any more M$ products nor will i use any product that requires some other company’s shitty software ( other than a basic opsys)to work – how would you like it if you bought a car that didn’t come with tires and it would only work on one other company’s gass and tires even though that company’s products got 1/2 the milage and went flat easily.
i use a pc so i’m running w98se. i guess you could say it’s a pirated copy since it’s been installed on every box i’ve used since ’95 – i only bought the upgrade to win 95 which came with my first pentium box in ’95, i don’t buy computers i like to build them up myself ( usualy a piece or to at a time, i’ve still got a hard drive or 2 from before ’90, and some of the sys i’m useing now still has the ’95 parts in it) – i will not upgrade nor will i buy XP.
so both Adobe and JASC have lost a customer, when i finaly *MUST* get a new opsystem i’ll go to linux and gimp ect.

If you and Adobe just realize

"You and Adobe"? You’re barking up the wrong tree. I’ve nothing to do with Adobe and I don’t necessarily agree with what they’re doing either. I’m just stating why *I* think Adobe chose activation. I’m not saying that it *is* the reason. My guess is only as good as yours.

You would think that the way to deal with this would be
to find a few such companies and then sue them. The
resultant publicity would cause most other companies to
pay up. No company can stand that kind of negative
publicity.

Perhaps Adobe intends to be as liberal as possible toward individuals that modify their hardware. After all, my
ethernet card will change too with a new machine. How can they tell that from an illegal install?

Still, I’d like to see some realistic data on how much
money Adobe *actually* has lost over this.

well i used PaintShop Pro 5 (i think it might have been 4) for a while and liked it. i reently got the test copy of PSP8 and threw it out before loading it completely – it demanded i use IE 6 – i will not buy nor will i use any more M$ products nor will i use any product that requires some other company’s shitty software ( other than a basic opsys)to work – how would you like it if you bought a car that didn’t come with tires and it would only work on one other company’s gass and tires even though that company’s products got 1/2 the milage and went flat easily.
i use a pc so i’m running w98se. i guess you could say it’s a pirated copy since it’s been installed on every box i’ve used since ’95 – i only bought the upgrade to win 95 which came with my first pentium box in ’95, i don’t buy computers i like to build them up myself ( usualy a piece or to at a time, i’ve still got a hard drive or 2 from before ’90, and some of the sys i’m useing now still has the ’95 parts in it) – i will not upgrade nor will i buy XP.
so both Adobe and JASC have lost a customer, when i finaly *MUST* get a new opsystem i’ll go to linux and gimp ect.

Sometime we have to let go what we like for something new <hic>. I was using the very same old DOS programs daily for around 15 or so years, and continue using them under Win98 (I never used Windows Explorer til few months ago).

And around 6-7 months ago I need to upgrade to faster system to handle the multimedia which I have been using heavily daily, and for DVD burner etc. so I upgraded the OS to WinXP. And since WinXP isn’t very friendlier with DOS like older Windows so I have to learn to use Windows Explorer. Back to the main thing, just like the PSP you didn’t upgrade because the older version still serve you well so you don’t need to upgrade to newer version. If the newer version has some unique feature you must have, then I guess IE6 wouldn’t be the main thing to stop you from going for the feature you want to have (or you can install IE6 but don’t have to use it etc.)

And if it isn’t the multimedia I may not go for WinXP, and of course Photoshop CS isn’t in the list of programs I can run on older Windows (or I wouldn’t be able to upgrade to CS even if I want to). Well, they have their own reason’s to do what they need to do, and we have our own to go along or not.

Not to stop the home user, because he will still not buy Photoshop if he can’t copy it, but to stop the use of multiple installations of one legal copy in the business environment.

You would think that the way to deal with this would be
to find a few such companies and then sue them. The

publicity.

True, but it might not be that easy. First they have to find them. Then they have to get evidence, without having a search warrant. How do you prove illegal use without having the right to enter the building and search the computers? Using spyware could be the answer, but spyware may be illegal and evidence based on spyware may not hold up in court. Adobe is a member of the Business Software Alliance. The BSA is already doing what you suggest, but apparently Adobe doesn’t think that’s enough.

It has been done in the past and usually was done by a
disgruntled (former) employee coming forward.

I’d be happier if I thought they’d tried to go that route first, because that’s where they are losing money.

I don’t understand. They HAVE tried to go that route first. Adobe has been a member of BSA for many years. Seems to me that they’ve decided it didn’t work, so now they have decided to do something else (activation).

Well, we have a problem then. If prosecution didn’t work then either they could not find cheaters (in which case how do they know they exist in any numbers) or they lost the cases in court.

I’ve not heard of any cases going to court, and like Adobe I’m fairly certain that there is corporate cheating. I’m told some of it is done in government offices where folks are asked to turn out Photoshopped images but there is no budget for buying Photoshop.

So for myself, I don’t really think that an effort has been made to crump down on cheaters. Activation is low-key and does not get into the daily papers. Law suits do. Look at the bad press the music industry has gotten.

But thanks for the points you’ve made. They help.

And if you really learn to use it just because it looks interesting you are increasing the overall value the product to Adobe by making it more generaly usable in a work environment (where presumabley you boss would not dare steal his copy).

Well but in the case of a car, stealing one would deprive its owner of its use.

That is like a car. When you steal one there is one less somewhere else.

Same answer. Those things are all hardware and each one takes an effort to make.

I am just pointing out that there is a difference between hardware and software. The economics of buying and selling it are different and also the economic results of certain software become widely available to people who are unwilling or unable to purchase it are different from a situation where, for example, an auto or computer showroom is looted.

Neither of us are fools, but you are teaching Sunday school while am trying to make a rather different point.

BTW I purchased my CS upgrade fair and square.

I see, you imagine (and wrongly) that because software can be copied infinitely that illegally copying, distributing and using pirated software is OK.

Same answer. Those things are all hardware and each one takes an effort to make.

So if something takes no effort to make it’s ok to steal it?

There is, however, no difference when it comes to stealing.

Your point is it’s ok to steal if you pretend it doesn’t hurt anyone.
