This is a very interesting topic. And light has been shed from a lot of directions here.
Myself, I don't like copy protection. It goes so far, that I have more unprotected self-payed-for software than cheaper protected software.
If it wouldn't bother the user, it was a whole different story. Most of the time it is a hustle.
And a little off topic: What if I noticed that I bought, let's say the MW mega super duper pack for a lot of money, and noticed that I don't need it. I don't want to sound arrogant, so I blame it on taste. I like my profiles and a lot of Andys and Armins stuff way more.
It is impossible without a protection or registration mechanism to return it. What about reselling? I mean once and then delete.
Is that different from selling e.g. Logic Pro?
The seller needs to trust me with his profiles for the leck of copy protection. So buying a rig pack, the seller assumes I won't share it with anybody. Isn't that the same trust that would come to play when I resell profiles I don't need? To sell it once and delete...
Share your thoughts on that. I would like to hear your thoughts.
Cheers,
