 In my opinion, I feel at any amount of income, that it still is not okay to use pirated software. Yes, it may take awhile and some money to get ahold of a legal copy, I still feel like no amount of income that an individual has, it still is not  okay to access and use pirated software.

 Technology is constantly evolving, and nations all across the globe are constantly developing and growing. Someone, somewhere, is always going to be one step behind the ever-growing industrialized world of technology.

Some approaches that I feel would help software companies in combatting the problem of pirated software, would be:

• Lower-priced models (restricted features, payable upgrades)
• Develop a form of payment plan
• Or offer basic software and have them buy "pieces"/updates of the software at a time\
• Figure out a database to store information or code for their software, such as a one time access code or some downloadable features in order to halt the solicitation of pirated software.
