There are probably going to be some high quality Kanji sets...and I'm hoping to see the new LiveType fonts shown in Final Cut Pro 4.

As for things being overpriced that everyone steals anyways...that applies to any software. If someone really wants to steal something, he'll do it...and get away with it. It's so frickin' easy nowadays that the only thing holding the computer software and music industry together is people that actually pay for their software.

If people keep going down the "I can find anything on P2P networks, so I'm never, ever going to buy software" road...one day that same person with never, ever be able to steal it because it won't exist.

Moral of my story: I don't give a f**k if people steal software...but if they really like the software and use it often, they should make a small effort to pay up.

If software or music is good enough to use everyday, then give the authors something to make them continue producing good software/music.

That page has been there since the Public Beta. It's always been accessible from the Fonts panel.

Sorry. False alarm. To add insult to injury, I think I've even seen this page before, I just remembered it looking different. When I saw the MacNN headline I thought "Well here it is... finally".

Gee... I'm really sucking today
