copies of copy written software on ebay
« on: March 14, 2007, 01:38:04 AM »
Why do people persist on giving copies of copy written commercially sold software on ebay. I will not mention the seller, but I bet a lot of you can guess or figure it out pretty quickly. This is exactly why it is hard for companies or individuals to justify allocating time and resources to develop software for Amiga. I wonder why Ebay lets people do this?

I can see someone copying a program where the company went belly up. How else would you get it. I was speaking of software that is still sold in retail outlets and is still being developed and supported. Support won't last long if authors do not get some money..
