Well, it may be a leap, but we have had some people on these forums admit too piracy and then realized their errors and went legit.Some people go through phases in life, some test the dark sides of life.Its a growing experience, look at drinking on college campuses and its sudden drop.Binge drinking and its results finally scared some straight, others will test out darwin's theory.Ok, Way OT, just putting things in perspective.

BTW I worked at a very big facility in LA circa 96 and I remember an engineer gave me a disc with a shite ton of warez for a "bonus"(these were on the PT rig as well, I was unaware what that little "K" was.I made the decision right there to not work for that individual nor use that crap.I could have easily taken that path, but I was raised to earn my needs/wants not take them.
