9/4/2023 0 Comments Ableton live crack no survey![]() ![]() I assume you're intelligent enough to see that?Ī: you're not polling a random sampling of musicians who use Live, only those that decide to hang in the Ableton forums.The company hosted forums.ī: Considering the owners of the forum, it would be safe to assume that a larger number of registered users of Live post here than at other forums for Live and related software.Ĭ: Because a larger number of posters are most likely registered users, the numbers are skewed. ![]() I can't see any scientific inquiry involved in your poll. What is the point then? What are you trying to prove? That's all I can say.Īllison Redhead wrote:Who cares? Not the point. I admit there's a lot of people who take these hardworking designers' and programmers' labor for granted, and never end up showing their appreciation for this contribution to music technology by actually paying for what they tried and loved. But thanks to this "wrong" I fell in love with this software and I did what's "right" thus making my purchases when my finances allowed. So cracking software is sort of a grey area. Software I cracked is software I eventually wound up buying. No senseless, uncontrolled downloading of random warez just for the sake of having them. Purchased Live 5 almost a month ago, and legally upgraded to Live 6. Bought Reason 2.5 when it came out, and upgraded to version 3 legally once it came out as well. ![]() And when the time was right, I did buy them. Why did I buy reason and live? Because I tried cracks of earlier versions (Reason 2 about 3.5 years ago, and Live 4 about 1-2 years ago) at the moments when I honestly was considering that I might want to buy them. Reason and Live are the only software I use, and it is software I have bought. Most musicians have at one point used cracked software. ![]() There's a reason that music software tends to have some of the most hardcore copy protection out there. I apologize if I have offended you without knowing about it. I think you've took the whole discussion too personally. If you use that information to draw any sort of real conclusion about the sexual persuasion of the girl, you would be doing her a disservice. If we are talking about the USA, and music/art communities, it's pretty much a given that a young girl will have at least one sexual encounter with another woman. Not any where near half of the musicians I run into are 100% crack free.Īs far as the personal attacks stuff goes, the lesbian comment had NOTHING to do with you, period! It's just a great example of a situation where you can set your agenda before you ask the question. Most people I know have used cracked software at some point. The point of this poll seems to me to be to prove that a substantial amount of crack users end up paying for it, but the audience is already made up of paying customers for the most part. How many gave up on finding a decent crack, and bought Live because Ableton's delayed copy protection scheme is working?Īnd of those how many still steal all the software they can where the crack is solid, and teams like Oxygen release the latest version as soon as it comes out? Of those 50% how many have completely given up on cracked software? What bias exactly do you think resulted in that split? Is my poll racist too? Sexist perhaps? Next you'll be telling me that we have to count indented chads on the ballots and we need a recount.Īllison Redhead wrote:Fact: of the respondents to the poll right now more than 50% right now once pirated Ableton and then bought it. If you believe there is, in some sense, some sort of question bias in the way I've written the questions, please outline the specifics. The fact that the numbers support my theory that this is a good percentage and that you in turn disagree with my theory doesn't invalidate the numbers simply because you say it should be so. If your intention was to prove that a heroin user is not a bad person because others have also tried heroin, it's flawed statistics.Īll I am interested in is how many people pirated Ableton Live and have since paid for it. Say someone was making a point about heroin, that it was not good, and you started a poll asking if anybody had ever tried heroin. If the questions point towards your advocating cocaine by saying yes, then it's a flawed poll. Compare it to asking if you have ever drunk alcohol, or cocaine. The poll is geared towards getting a response you want. Just because the poll is rubbing your morality the wrong way doesn't make it a flawed poll. ![]()
