Software, I don't understand the software list. Options

[gipsiad]

Looking at the software on this site and others I don't understand the problems with shareware or freeware, I don't understand what a commercial free update is, if you where to download the demo and the commercial update would that then mean you would have a compete program? The only thing I do understand is demo.
But what I want to know is why there isn't much in the way of freeware or shareware for the MAC like there is for the PC.
At the end of the day some people use these programs to make money and that is there livelihood and for others like me who will never be good enough to be a professional it's just fun and a good pastime as a hobby.
But being in the latter section means that spending $1000 for logic pro is out of the question I would never be able to save up that amount of money and by the time I did the next version of the software would be out and 7 would be outdated form 8, if you understand my point is.
For people who are not in the music industry but want to maybe play with music software how a kid would play with computer games, the price is too much.
This is why I am looking for free or shareware, I don't agree nor do I want cracked software doesn’t do anyone any favours.
But why can't for all the people who just using the MAC and there setup for bedroom mix's be able to share software with each other and if so where can one find such a site?

Deaconblue!!!! Wow... Sounds perfect... You were rubbing shoulders with the 'Big Boys' 'Fat Cats' 'Money For Nuthin' Chicks For Free Posse' I'm jealous... Glad you're back... Seems some Members are having problems, but I'm not sure if they are being solved or not. Members who have had their problems solved should say so. Often I read the problems and watch to see how they are fixed... but... No one is saying either: "Thanks it worked" or "Nope"...

I heard another G5 Quad Horror Story... Ditto for the ProBook. Both of these stories had to do with poor performance regarding Music Production. They seem to work fine around the 'Office' but suck relating to music.

I apologize for my iFoot in Steve Jobs iAss remark. It was childish. Perhaps I'll have my Solicitor contact Macintosh Main Office... Oh that should only cost several thousands dollars for nothing... Nope... Sorry...iFoot. Nike in a Mac... Commercial value? Steve Jobs I am only joking about kicking your ass... For iSpy Security I could be put in a real jail for a virtual remark... Still crappy about the Quads... iFinger.

Deacon great news. I know you are going to be one of the many in the Mac Forum to make it. You're talented musically, solid technically, focused and you got dat spiritual thang goin' for ya... I mean with a name like Deaconblue...
