How much pirated Amiga software did you have?

Back in the day, I had very few Amiga games, they were all original. In the year 2000 I started collecting Amiga software, mostly pirated warez kind of stuff.

But I have to say that nowadays the only software which I try to legally buy, is Amiga software. I have registered a few shareware Amiga packages lately, but then it is obvious, that some titles are only found as abbandonware/pirated no matter how you call them.

Mostly depends on price. I like winzip, use it a lot and reinstall it every time it expires, but the $50 price tag is too high. $25 would be fairer. You could see it as $25 loss, but considering I'm not going to pay $50 anyway, it's a lost sale.

I feel mostly the same regarding software. The most I am ever willing to spend on a specific software product is $25 dollars. Unless this software is going to cure cancer and HIV alltogether, I am not willing to spend a dime more. It is unreasonable from a home user perspective to pay more than that. It is absolutely different from a corporate perspective.
