This is precisely what Adobe's model was up to Creative Cloud. Probably tens if not hundreds of thousands of young people, school kids and students, grabbed the CS5/6 keygen off of some warez site, taught themselves how to use Photoshop, and asked later employers to provide them with Photoshop.

Nowadays, it's not the case any more as the 20€ or so a month are affordable for a lot of people.
