Sorry, it doesn't make much sense to me. It is the same old story - the only ones penalized are the honest possible customers who can not test before buying. Those who would want to use it unauthorized will do it anyway...

Complicated issue. I tend to like better the software that is not too expensive and encourage people to be honest by attractive pricing. I am not saying vArranger should be cheaper, but I think, in general, out of ten people probably 7 will rather pay 50 bucks and use the programme legaly than have a price of 200, only two will pay and the rest will use pirated versions.
I would like to test vArranger btw.
