If a software is not important, why would I pay for it?

If a software is important, maybe I could pay for it.

If a software is REALLY IMPORTANT, then I have no choice but to keep using it, at which point I can't possibly subject myself to the long term risk associated with a licensed piece of software. A free software is the only viable option.
