Intuit has added an unacceptable elemant to their program. They need to be educated about the problem they have. On the positive side, I prefer last years' turboTax to this years' TaxCut. TaxCut seems ... well, spartan in comparison. I work for a chain of tax preparers and could use the company software for free, but for personal reasons (not technical) prefer not to. There are plenty of options, but IMO TurboTax has been the best of the personal packages. It is just that the C-dilla software is unacceptable. Intuit will not change because I refuse to buy the program, but they might if they begin to get tthe reputation they deserve for the unacceptable anti-piracy approach they have adopted. That means that those of us who object must complain publicly. Anyone who uses personal attacks to stop the compalints is clearly shilling for Intuit. Such people are as irrational as tax protesters like AK and Toto and are not to be listened to.
