    It is wrong to do but hey alot of people do it. Mainly because paying $100's for software like photoshop and flash is just obsured. When i turn 16 this year though I may be good and buy legal versions of flash and dreamweaver, in a cheap student package I saw on amazon.

    It's not absurd at all, photoshop is actually relatively cheap. The program is designed for proffesional Graphic Designers who can afford and all do pay such prices. Programs for graphics and 3D such as Maya reach 3000 pounds, yet, many of the people its aimed for still purchase it.

    I think it's your choice if you want to pay 100$+ for a program or to take the risk of cracking it.

    I respect your opinion but people such as me that are still in school and such dont have so much money so really the only resourt is to getting it free.

    I am forced to download illegal softwares.
    I take Computer Science and I need Visual Basic at home. Are my parents going to pay $100 for it? NOOO!
    I also take Data Managment and my exam part 1 has to be done on PowerPoint. Are my parents going to pay $60 for it? NOOO!

    Plus, I am not against screwing off big companies like 3D Discreet, Microsoft and Adobe.
