I've figured out how to pirate stuff for a while now, but it only recently came to mind that I could get premium versions or paid programs for stuff that I've been avoiding for years.

For instance, Google docs is the only (good) free doc editor app, but now that I can, I am trying out several normally paid apps.

Does anyone have any interesting suggestions for apps (or computer programs for linux and windows) that I could download now that I have realized the power I wield?

The cost and lock-in of most software is not actually the money they charge for it. It's the time you take to learn it. So if you take time now to learn proprietary software, you're in fact tying yourself to that software.

It's like all the graphics design students pirating Photoshop, when they go out to work what skill set are they going to use most?
