Your OS, tools, movies, musics.
How many of them are get legal authorization?
Please tell the truth.

As for me.
Half time I work under Linux, so my OS, tools is legal.
When I worked under windows, I use lot's warez tool(about 40%), the rest are freeware or shareware.
As for music and movie. I am not fans of music and movie,
maybe 90% of them are without copyright.
But in my laptop now, there is no music and movie.

I usually test a program's worth by getting a bootleg copy first to train with. When it proves to be useful and worth the money, then I eventually buy it (legal one). That way I won't end up with overpriced junk on my hardrive.

There's no denying however that real programs are too damn expensive for average guys like us and comes with all the legal horseshit dictating us what we can do with it even after we paid for them. B)

I pirate sometimes with torents. I never use warez, I think it sucks... I only use torrents and P2P(Ares) to download software. Mostly I just buy it.

Assassin, where do you get your torrent files? Do you use Azureus to download them?
