Maple comes with a 403 page reference manual and a 115 page tutorial.
I'd be hard-pressed to copy this quickly. It also comes with support,
which no pirate can copy. Maple is good software, and costs good money
for a reason. It also has a little built-in anti-pirate protection
because of the good manuals.

Can we stop beating this dead horse already? It was boring a year ago
when we had an inconclusive discussion about it.
