I agree with this. Don't get me wrong - crackers piss me off too. They make me as angry as anyone, but to take that anger out on the legitimate, paying users seems misplaced to me. Why should the honest ones have to suffer for others' misdeeds? The dishonest ones will just disable whatever you put in there anyway, they certainly won't mind...

Just don't store registration info in the Preferences file so casual pirates can't just delete the prefs every 30 days to get an unlimited license, and you'll have as much protection as makes sense. Everyone who goes to much more effort than that, probably sees it as a challenge and would crack your elaborate scheme anyway, and making life a misery for your paying customers will cause much more damage than those crackers can, I'd suppose.
