And still the well know "sales-effect" from piracy is applied here, too - i.e. when one have the conditions to discriminate, one buys the most wanted and drop the rest. E.g. I've tried every version of Fritz "without expensis" and the lot is off my HD, while I don't like the app. On the other hand I've been a payer (Schröder) since Gideon, only once with MCPro and would be if the King-engine got a really update, and so on...
