Pirated copies of Final Cut Pro may infect your Mac with crypto-mining malware, https://www.macworld.com/article/1522125/jamf-threat-labs-pirated-final-cut-pro-cryptojacking-malware.html.

I thought, clearly wrongly, that pirated music software was the choice of money stuck young people. By the time you could afford a Mac, you were more mature and ethically stable, and basically, grown up. I stopped using pirated software when I got my first mortgage and grew up, on my pc. It was a shock to discover cubase and other popular sofftware didn't crash frequently when you used the rarer facilities the pirates never bothered to crack. On starting with macs, things got even more adult and spending money increased.

Is this not like buying a Range Rover, and producing biofuel in your shed? You just have to ask why?

Argggg! Why would anyone use a pirated copy of FCPX? I has got to be the most reasonably price software. One time purchase with no subscription!

and you can get DaVinci Resolve for free so why bother?
