I am a 15 year old producer who started out with a pirated copy of fl studio, I repeatedly got shit for it on this subreddit cause i was transparent on it, so i just stopped commenting. Please rethink your life when you are bitching about a 15 year old torrenting software. These Plugins/Daws Can cost up to thousands of dollars if you want something like the Full Version of FL and some plugins with it.
I have one friend who "made it" his song went somewhat viral with 800k views on youtube, Now that he is actually earning money from music production he is much more comfortable with buying software. I dont make any money on music, i just upload it to soundcloud. I virtually dont even exist on the internet as an edm producer, i dont make any money on it and i dont plan to either.
I bet you can take any big edm artist today and they will probably say that they torrented whatever they started out with. Hell even artist within other hobbies like Photoshop probably did that too. Piracy is great, it allows people to really get into something like producing, so stop being lil bitches about it.
Edit: I am not completely immoral, I live by this statement by louis c.k http://i.imgur.com/MaHB4.png
