It just doesn't feel right to use cracked software now that I can afford it.
But , in a way I don' think cracked audio software is as bad as cracked game software : the problem with game software is that once you're old enough to pay for it , you're too old to play it whereas the old cracked versions of ableton made me a real Live adict for years to come.
Just shows that users of cracked software eventually buy their favourite ones.
