I do think that piracy is more pervasive on pc's. Every person I know
who has a pc has pirated commercial programs. I've seen pirated versions
of commercial programs used by companies I've worked for. My brother
used to work for a large aerospace firm and a friend of his there came
very close to being fired because he refused to use pirate software
at work, which pissed his supervisor off bad. I detect the attitude
among pc owners that I know that they are "entitled" to pirate copies and
you would be "stupid" to buy it. Do I hang out with an atypical, criminal
set of people? I don't think so. I think they reflect the views of the
average pc user.

I think the commercial piracy situation has gotten better since software
manufacturers have started raiding corporations.

Now I don't know about shareware - I am talking about pirated commercial
software, not shareware.
