Digital BW, The Print

James

Thank you again for your comments and feed back. My question is why if it is
such a problem for Adobe why don't they go after these web sites that
promote it in a very large and public way and have them shut down? it Does
not make sense when they are so open about it. That would solve the problem
very quick. It is not the case where people are lending their disks and key
codes to others or selling it to others to use. I am not justifying it or
what they do at these sites but it would be a simple matter to move in on
them as a group and put them out of business. Wouldn't you think? I don't
know, maybe there are court cases pending but you don't hear about them.

Does anyone else have any information on why they don't follow this course
of action to get to these distributors? There must be some reason why. I
will ask my attorney that question again.

Thanks

Charlie

  I'd worry about Adobe, not the group.  Software piracy is why I have to
  register music software in no fewer than three steps using not just
  serial numbers, but authorization codes that I have to obtain in
  separate steps.  And if I don't do it before the grace period expires,
  I can't even use software that I've PAID for until I do.  It's because
  of software piracy and illegal distribution.    Software companies get
  real touchy about it.
