I don't want to be a pirate

...but what other choice do I have?

In this case, is it ok to "steal" this software, seeing as there is virtually no chance of getting a legal copy? Should I be forced to pay full price for a product that has no official support? Should NI do with this what Propellerheads did with ReBirth?

What do you think?

 

It's still supported; it's just not being developed any farther. There's a difference.

And, unless NI themselves give it away, it's not OK to use a shall we say not so legal version.

Those are fair points and I think I should make it clear I am not supporting piracy. I think artists and programmers should get paid for their work, it's only fair. I try to buy legally downloaded music whenever I can, even though I hate DRM.

In that case, do you think NI should give the software away? Since they are no longer planning on producing or developing it, why not let the public download a copy?

I apologise if I sound like a hippy.

 

This is the only discontinued software id like to see make a come back, intel mac please

 

?

It runs on an Intel Mac with the 1.2 update.

Your best bet is to find someone selling a used copy. The marketplace forum at KVR's worth watching...

yes i realised soon after i posted that it had a final update to intel, will keep an eye open

cheers

 

BTW: you can still find the demo on the net, which should work for 30 minutes.
