Subject: Extent of unauthorised copying of commercial packages?

I note that:

- Chess Tiger 15 is floating around, disembodied, on a newsgroup;

- there is a "pack" of engines (.eng and .dll files, no books or tablebases)
available through file sharing.

Although disinterested - being a Linux user - it's the first time I've
(explicitly) noted such things. Hence the question.

For what it's worth Tiger has been split up into 58 pieces so, for the time and
effort expended in tracking them down and gluing them together, one would
probably be better off buying it.

In any case my attempt to download one of the pieces locked up knode ;)
