Neil,

OT,

You are jumping all over the place, but let's just say that there is a programmer who writes a program, and by selling one, he will still be homeless, but fed, by selling 2, his children can be fed 2, by selling 3, they can have home etc.

How do you know that by stealing someone's work by copying his software, you are shortchanging a huge corporation of a few bucks in earnings, or if you are stealing food from someone's table?

If a programmer states that the software is not to be copied without authorization, doing so is the same as stealing apple from a grocery store.
