Yep. I have too much to loose if they're not. Spending the $600 on a library is a lot cheaper than $250,000 per incident if I'm caught.

Which brings me to the problem that you have. Sure, you can develope applications with a stolen library and sell them. But, if DevExpress finds out about it, they can sue you for, say $250,000, PER COPY of your application that you sold using their controls. They can also go after your customers for the same thing, who are then going to come after you to pay the bill.

Hmmm, $600 vs. potential say $1,000,000... The choice is pretty obvious to me.

The other side is that you're a small development house and can't afford the cost of the controls, so you have to make up for the "pretty controls" with higher quality, rock solid code and supieror support for your customers. THAT brings in the money to get the prettier controls. Even DevExpress had to start somewhere...
