reason is a very powerfull tool , i allways rewire him in my daw´s (its perfect for percutions and hithats)

reason never used advanced copy protections (only serial number)

advanced copy protections are not good for nobody ,

1º its heavy for the systems (dongle keys etc, aleatory calls to web and that kind of stuff)
2º the piracy allways made the industry standards
3º many bugs posted on support forums are about bad craked versions , and gives bad name to the real software
4º the production costs are high becouse the company have to pay for the copy protection of each copy they sell

look the example of cubase 4 , nobody have a demo , looks like its impossible to crack , nobody use it nobody talk about it and soon nobody knows it exist

even apple saw the advantage in this and released the new logic pro 8 without advanced copy protection (only uses a simple serial number) they never sell so many macs like they are selling now!


ps: dont get me wrong , its just my point of view...
