I wouldn't call it an epidemic. I play a lot of halflife based games/mods and very rarely see someone who I believe is cheating.

I've seen it happen a lot.

Actually... the last keygen I saw can come up with a key in about 7 minutes.
My girlfriend has an at&t phone and this is definitely consistent with what i've experienced...
I was kinda thinking this too... i mean really.. what is the significance here?
Can someone please explain to me how this is damaging to society? I guess maybe if they were downloading boyband mp3s... but other than that..
You can't forget the wonderful fruityloops program... http://www.fruityloops.com
Pretty fun vst and synth stuff.
Just shorten the commercials instead. Duh. :)
