Back in '05-'06 I was that asshole who pirated FL Studio 5. I did that because I was a dumb 14 year old who didn't understand how shitty software pirating was. When FL studio 7 or 8 came along, I felt this weird thing called "guilt" and purchased FL Studio for life. From a distance, selling your product once, when you could get away with selling it per version, was "so stupid" according to my barely-out-of-highschool self. It felt almost as bad as stealing it. But now I make music semi-professionally (soundcloud.com/dj-nate if you're so inclined) and I will ALWAYS use FL Studio as my DAW. This means I will buy many many VSTis and effect plugins designed by Image-Line (and more).
My point to all this is, if you download FL Studio illegally, give the developers a digital high-five and buy their software.
