I'm a PC user.

I've payed for the majority of software I actually use that isn't freeware. Then theres stuff which is getting trialled and thats always in rotation. Whatever I don't use or buy gets deleted after a couple of months or it just sits there cus its usually useless clutter or not for me. The stuff I rely on and like gets my $$$ support :)

Don't know what this has to do with Mac vs PC tho.

To be honest, with big things like sequencers you'd be stupid not to do a 3 month trial before buying.
