Maya Unlimited is a 16.000$ program with probably the best security features found on any program and there are still cracks for it on the net. The only people these features cause problems for are the paying customers. I work for a very spesialized software maker that creates programs for the maritime industry, and know that an uncrackable software protection scheme is a myth. Can anyone here name a program that has not been cracked? I know our company's software has been pirated but we are sticking to the serial nr. and name setup simply because 1)we know no matter how complicated you make the protection it's defeatable. 2) The costs outweigh the returns 3)You wind up with a lot of pissed off clients on the telephone Need I say more?
