I wonder why there is piracy..... There are many marketing researchs that states differents % of piracy depending upon the countries..... What I really think about piracy is that if the programs (I mean whatever program not only chess ones) were cheaper, the % of piracy would go down dramatically...... I am sure (and here I challenge chess corporations to show me the other faces of this matter) that for example if fritz 8 or shredder 7 would cost 5 or 10 dollars each, they would sell thousands of programs because that way it would not be worth while to do piracy...... Their profits would be higher than now, not only because of the more sales , but having reduced their costs spending less money in security matters (sophisticated antipiracy protection, and so on). I coudl challenge them to try to sell Fritz 8 or best the next Fritz 9 for example, in 5 dollars and have them permitted being downloaded and paid online instantly by credit cards. They would be surprised about how they will rise up their sales and their profits....... Thx
