In response to various hard reaalities about software piracy.......

I agree that software piracy is here to stay, and little can be done
to get rid of them, but I still wish to CONDEMN them.  There are alot
of drug dealers, pimps, and other assorted criminal types which are
also here to stay, but that does not make me accept them....
  I am a developer, my products do get pirated, and it p's me off,
period.  If they were not going to buy my product anyways, then I
DON'T WANT THEM USING IT !  Get the picture ?
  Just because I don't plan to buy your car, does that allow me
to come over to your dwelling place and take it for a spin ?
  There is no rationlization for piracy, it is theft, and that is
all it is.  Anyone that is making a livelihood off that theft is
a thief.  I prescribe the Islamic punishment for thieves.

  Flame away, these are just my views.......
