making your software more hack proof the next time, will only make the hackers curse you more... and essentially make the chances of them buying the software even lower. take the music industry, instead of chasing after people as the record companies did in the past, they decided just to make it easier for people to obtain the music in the first place, like on itunes. getting music on itunes nowadays is quicker then limewire! limewire, you might not find what song you are looking for, and you might get a virus, or a bad version, while downloading from itunes is probably quicker as well! also, instead of chasing every joe blogs that illegally posts their song on youtube, they post their own songs on youtube, and link it to a purchase... good marketing i think, but a bit off the point i suppose. If someone has a choice of going to another room, finding their credit card, typing in ALL the details, or just getting it quicker for free via torrent... they will chose option B. So my advice is:

1)像某人建议的那样弹出一个窗口，上面写着“真为你感到羞耻”。如果有人没有，然后去支付软件后的消息。他们一开始就不会为软件付费。PS.还要说:“这是您正在使用的盗版版本，不能保证此软件的完整性，这可能对您的计算机有害。”要购买认证版本，点击这里”，吓唬他们一点，但不威胁他们。

2)让支付变得非常简单，也许可以尝试通过软件公司出售，这些软件公司已经存储了人们的信用卡详细信息，这样他们就可以一键购买。我现在使用itunes的唯一原因是，它比limewire更快，而且我可以预览一下:)

3)合理定价:(说实话，我认为如果adobe把他们的产品价格降低到原来的四分之一，他们的销售额就会增加四倍。除非一个黑客要花费超过70个小时(每小时10美元)才能破解adobe软件(大约700美元)，否则他们才会购买它。如果一个程序是5美元，对他们来说可能更好…然而，我发布的产品有时需要根据投入的工作量定价更高。

从本质上讲，所有这些建议都与……有关。试着让黑客站在你这边，通过内疚、说服和节省他们的时间!

接受现实吧。大多数盗版你的软件的人无论如何都不会买它。但这并不是停止制作软件的理由，几乎所有主要的软件都被破解和盗版，但Adobe和大型游戏工作室等都还在经营。

这很简单。在过去，如果你负担不起或者不想让警察保护你的油井，或者事实上，警察不在乎，你知道你会怎么做吗?

你会在井里下毒的。

如果我是你，我就涨价5%。然后我会发布一个完整的功能演示，上面写着“已注册[破解]”，但它会意外地崩溃并出现故障。

在所有地方发布这个新版本。Bitorrent, edonkey, usenet，所有你能找到的盗版网站。淹没竞争!

然后指引被破解的用户联系客户支持，如果他们现在注册并提供下载破解软件的网站，就可以享受5%的折扣。

使用裂缝作为促销代码来推动销售。

技术保护迟早会失效，试试别的吧。

苹果在避免iPhone应用盗版方面做得很出色:他们以1美元/份的价格出售应用。获得盗版拷贝的成本高于使用AppStore(搜索、下载、安装)。

Consider piracy as a business expense that comes with the territory of having a product that can be sold to thousands at near zero product cost. We can't have it all our way. Just use basic protection to stop customers passing it around. Anything more is not worth the time and expense. Don't make your paying customers jump through licensing hoops. Often I'll pay for a product, get driven crazy by the licensing scheme and seek out a cracked version. Make trials not by period but by hours used. It's easy to get diverted and not have a chance to evaluate the software. Most people won't consider to ask for an extension. Consider if you've pirated music CDs, movies, software etc. yourself and rest in peace knowing it somewhat evens out. Always have different levels of your product. People don't want to pay big bucks for a product they only use 10% of. Make the product fantastic. Customers will eagerly await the latest version and not want to wait for a crack to appear. The users of poor products think, "I hate this product, it's full of bugs, but I haven't found anything better yet". That's inviting piracy.

我会不断更新软件。确定一定有一些bug需要修复，并添加客户要求的新功能?当用户拥有盗版版本并对其感到满意时，他们会发现当前版本拥有更多功能，这可能会促使他们购买最新版本。

添加新功能不仅能让现有客户满意，还能吸引新客户。
