dude...you don't need the software to survive


you're right, I could steal a reel to reel, but when it needs new parts nobody makes them...so in the longrun better to steal something that doesn't need new parts, eh dewd.


Also, you're talking to a person who has let homeless youth from the neighborhood (kicked out by parents) sleep at his apartment, because the rich people in this country do not provide enough homeless shelters, and there has been a homeless EPIDEMI, ever since reagan closed all the mental hospitals putting hundreds of thousands out on the streets overnight.


you kids no nothing about the united states recent history, it's sickening how ignorant you kids have become, is this what too much establishment schooling has done to you?
 
I don't give a fuck about United States' recent history. Im Australian, you knob jockey. And there's more options than pirated software and a broken reel to reel. Like Reaper, which I believe you've already been told about.

You lost me here buddy. Another insular American who doesn't realise that 95% of the population of the world is not American and hence significantly more people don't care about your country than those that do.

I couldn't give two fucks about American history either so I'm with watermelon on this one.

Also, don't start ragging on the Australian guy. I'd rather live destitute in his country than spend five minutes in yours.

Oh, spare me. Do you REALLY think it matters? There isn't a fuckin' typist on this board who doesn't have a thief, rapist, and murder for an ancestor. Every mother's son and daughter is descended... somewhere... from a slave. The conceits you people harbor are hilarious. Some of you are arrogant because you live in America, others are arrogant because they don't. Jeez.

We're all a bunch of chimps. Get over yourself!

what are you a gay brit?

I was only addressing americans with my comment about the united states you little punk.

go brush your teeth you foul mouthed british homo, don't you know your every move is on camera in uk, haha, you idiots think you have such a superior free society compared to the US, THINK AGAIN ASSHOLE, ha ha ha, england's cowardly economic-elites are ahead of the u.s. in their implementation of the new world order yet you think you're so "progressive" socially, well wait until a crisis hits and you will see you are one of THEE least free countries in the world.

I'm not arrogant about being an american, in fact I'd much rather live in Belgium if I spoke the language, you seem to be insecure about yourself because of where you're from judgeing by your accusatory tone when I was simply addressing people from my own country...did you feel left out? haha

You're all a bunch of stupid fucking morons.

Tie a plastic bag over your heads and breath.

Yes but it seems that nobody else gets reminded of it on a daily basis by ignorant Americans who can't think of anything origional to say about Australians.

Feature:
Mine came with the firewire card. I would not recomend it for serious recording via the firewire card though. Totally do-able if you use tracktion (the mackie redording software) and are not interested in studio quaility recording. But if you use a cpu hogging program like Sonar (which gives a better end result than traction, despite being difficult to use by comparison)you better have a very up to date computer or you will not get good results. Seriously disturbing latency problems with high end recording software like Sonar Producer edition. "
 
if you steal something such as a loaf of bread and then eat it you are depriving the baker of money....thats bad.

but if somebody who is skint downloads software and just messes around with it for his own hobbiest use ....is he stealing.

you see there is no deprivation of money in this case...and the manufacturer doesnt have to produce another unit....

now if you are rich and would have bought that product but chose to download instead...well that is stealing. The money that should be in the software producers bank account is in the rich guys account.

Now we have a case.


and to all the kneejerckers out there as time goes on the definition of whats right and wrong is constantly evolving with society and digital technology has muddied the waters. The old laws and the thoughts that brought them to bear do not apply as easily today as they use to when life was a lot more straightforward.

Just take the concept of land ownership....is it fair that because you are born at a later date and your parents are poor that you are not entitled to land. Well society as a whole has decided the principles governing areas such as this and everything else up to what is murder and what should be fair if you park on a double yellow line.

imagine if you could produce land for free using new technologies....

just open your mind ....if i worked my ass off to produce an audio package and there was some loser student bum living on the bread line...well i wouldnt give a flying fuck if he was using my product for free...makes no difference to me....no skin of my nose...hes got no money....but just maybe he might get rich one day ....or maybe he tells his rich mates who would prehaps buy it.

in fact software companies dont make their products too hard to crack because they know that market penetration will take a hit.

this is the real world.....wake up!!
 
After watching the responses on this thread for too long I can summerize my postion thus...

IF YOU WANT TO STEAL GO RIGHT AHEAD!! JUST DON'T FUCKING TRY TO JUSTIFY IT!! ASSWIPES!!

Humanity, the only intelligent species on planet Earth... NOT!!!

Australia is the only country south of the equator populated by Caucasoids, although I have no idea how they got there.
