What about pocketwarez?

Postby Dr Slump » Jul 20, 2001 @ 3:24pm

Sometimes some software enterprises (like one wich have made a program wich starts with "Pocket" and ends with "TV", what can be?) abuses his users. In this case the "directive" abuses Jornada720 owners: "We don't think you should purchase a $1,000 Handheld PC if you think $49.95 is too expensive!" Ups! I squeezed my accound enough to buy my J720 I can't squeeze it more to pay this abusive prices!!!<br><br>I thing in this cases, and only in this cases the warez activiti is justificated, because is an abusive response to an abusive situation.But... where are pocketwarez? There are a black hole in the net!! Is too early? Are there too few users?<br>What is the problem?<br><br>One of my freends says: "The Piratery makes informatic as extended as is nowadays so, who will pay 1500 bucks to run 5 or 6 programs (wich the normal people can pay)?" <br><br>The warez is the engine of the Informatic busines!!

There are plenty of users, and tons of CE warez out there. But I'm not going to let you start a rebellion here. So please don't rally any troops or take recruits.<br><br>I agree that paying anything more than $30 for a mobile application is rediculous, but sometimes you can't help it. That's why Microsoft can charge $200 for an OS, because everyone wants and needs it to run nearly any software at all.

Dan, this is PocketTV's solution for getting a free copy of the Mpeg player: "Write it off as a business expense." If you don't fancy telling a lie to your boss, they reckon if you have the cash to  pay 1k for a HPC, then you can afford their software.<br><br>That's a pretty good response if I ever heard it. I wish all companies worked like this~<br>
