Anyone have any experience with any that work.

All I read are

horror stories and flaky performance with the

ones out there.

Even a 4-port USB 2.0 hub from Belkin I have did

not work. Would

not see the Apple USB SuperDrive. Going on a

trip 3rd week of

December and no way can I get by with just two

USB ports. (My

music software alone requires two dedicated USB

copy protection

dongles)

Thanks in advance.

I have the perfect solution, download all of your

music without

DRM like I have been doing since 1999. They're

called "mp3." Then

you can use whatever player you want, on any OS,

copy them freely

to multiple devices and not have to worry about

USB dongles.

Lloyd
LOL!

Justin, I don't think he's talking about software

quite that

simplistic. Look up Avid ProTools sometime.

I'm not sure if he is using that particular one.

Justin
OK... just checked up on it. There's a crack out

there that

allows it to run without the dumbass dongle. Since he

already paid for the

software it is his right to be able to use it.

Lloyd
No it isn't. Owning a legal copy gives you no

rights to a cracked

version.

Justin
If he paid for the software he paid for the right to

use it.

Do you agree?

Alan Baker
He paid for the rights to use it under the terms by

which it was

licensed to him.

Justin
and if it is discovered the license is unfair after the

purchase, he is

within his moral rights to use the software. He bought it, he can use it. It really is that simple.

Alan Baker
If I write it, I get to choose how I license it. If you

don't like how I

license it, don't buy it.

It really is THAT simple.

If you write it to work properly and don't intentionally design flaws like using an external piece of shit that can fail at any moment, it won't be an issue.

It really is that simply.
