i used to play around with all of the cracked and stolen software. at the end of the day though, its not worth it. instead of being beholden to the software company, you're beholden to the hackers/crackers/packagers. do you think their intentions are any more 'noble' than the software companies trying to make a buck?
just my $.02. i found that theres an open source alternative to almost everything. a lot of the time, the open source version can be even better.
