Cheap Software
 
Just looking around at some software online and found this site


Allows you to download software direct rather than get a box posted, apparently you still get a full version but without any manuals other than supplied with the disk.

Anyone ever used this site or a similar site, was wondering if it was worth trying.

What sites do you guys use for ordering software from?

errmmmmm.........

If you want to hand over money for illegitimately distributed pirated goods then fine. I wouldn't touch that with a 10 foot pole. No company details, policy statements, nothing!

Tell me, when you send your money off and get nothing in return, what are you able to do about it?

When you send money off and get pirated software, that you could've downloaded for free from P2P, on;y to find out that it has limited functionality and no capacity to be upgraded, what are you able to do about it?

Nothing, because you've wasted money and it's your own fault!

Buy software legitimately or use the best available freeware alternatives. There's no such thing as software legitimately discounted to that extent!

At least not current production versions.
It's sometimes possible to find heavily discounted old software in bargain bins of course.

The stuff on that site is all CD .iso images. It's a distrubution outlet for pirated software.
