Yeah, I pirated design software. I was at uni, it was expensive, i couldn't afford it and no one was willing to buy it for me.
I learned the software, got a job because I had knowledge from the software and have since spent a small fortune with the company for many new versions of the software.
Hell, i even told the support guys at the company i use to pirate their software but when they look at what i have since spent and registered with them they didn't complain.
I am not ashamed of this. Because of it i have a job I enjoy, pay my taxes and make an honest living. The company has benefited a lot more from me financially simply because I pirated their software in the first place.
