Overnight the majority of tens of 1000s of design/art+ students throughout the world couldnt use the product. They’d find another product that was either vastly cheaper or free. And then they would graduate not knowing how to use CS. Adobe would die within a few years.

Adobe need the pirated copies in order to ensure their products continue to be the industry standard. I’ve heard (reliable 2nd hand source) of an Adobe insider acknowledge this too.

When they come up with a player that will play movies on an SD card, USB drive, & able to stream wirelessly from my PC, I’ll start buying movies again. Until then screw hollywood & the MPAA. Same goes with CDs. CDs feel ancient & that’s what is still in stores.

The entertainment industry has had it too easy for too long. They did this to theirselves & now they’re QQ’ing about it. They’ve sold us plastic discs that cost less than a 5 cents to make for $20. We’re tired of the blatant extortion & your money grubbing ways. So cry somemore, your tears taste so sweet… ;)
