Open source software is good and there r some programs way better than commercial software but there r many programs that are not as well. An example is how photoshop is more polished and easier to use than GIMP.
Also take an example of openoffice Calc, when u type in a formula it will never tell the remaining formula in case u forget whereas Microsoft Office will. Its this little stuff which makes software more enjoyable to use and thats why people pirate it in my opinion. My self I don’t really like software piracy.
