John Bohlen Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 1 hour ago, cclarry said: THIS is the reason that "resale ability" and "resale price" are so important to me. If I buy a plugin for $100, and then decide that "it's not what I need", then I need to be able to get the majority of that money back. Sadly, most companies are NOW making that virtually impossible! This FEE and that FEE etc...etc...and LOW resale price makes plugins a BAD investment for ANY Studio Owner...let alone us "hobbyists" That's the reason people pirate the crap out of them. They want us to treat their digital goods as physical items, but when we try to do the same thing... oops, you can't do that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buying a plugin should be the same as buying a piece of hardware. Once you don't need it, or go out of business, you should be able to sell it without paying the company a "fee". While it's true that it's only a "license", that license is YOURS! It's like paying the company TWICE....once for the privilege of using it, and once for the privilege of NOT using it. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need a license for a can of beans now, do I? ? Like they concocted the Public Performance License... ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starise Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Quote Whoever it is should have at least "asked me", or, at the bare minimum, given me some kind of "warning" if I had violated some "policy". That would be the fair thing to do. They seldom do that. In my case they didn't either. Someone needs to grow a pair....anyways. I'm glad it all worked out and you're back in now. I'm not sure I would want to go back. Let them see how much traffic you likely brought there for them. Then again, why let one individual with a corn cob up his hiney ruin your day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They shouldn't just restore Larry's account, they should also fire the admin responsible for the mishap. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBH Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I guess I sort of self banned..... Too many inane silly quests and questions over there. " How can I run 24 instances of x reverb " type of stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleer Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Mmmm. A self-ban, now there’s a pretty, pretty good idea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Good to hear they "saw the light" Larry! I'll stop looking for my password now. (Which would have definitely only resulted in my making one flaming post before I was banned as well! ?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
