"If you have a web connection it take less than a minute to unlock your app." This is very presumptuous in and of itself. Presuming that the challange/response generator is not something that needs human intervention (ie, a script, program, etc) there are a myriad of things that can prevent legitimate users from obtaining the required response code from a myriad of technical aspects at any given point in time. Just the apparent onslaught of preorder P5 purchases alone may be enough to overwhelm the registration process. Of course, all of this is just pure conjecture on our part, but CL seems to be quite "vague" if almost non-responsive regarding the many requests to describe the process so people can determine if the upgrade would be worth the additional security verification. I, for one, would like to read an "authoritative" discussion on the topic from those in the know in order to sway my decision one way or the other. So, how about it CL? Are you prepared to make an official disclosure or potentially lose more money in legitimate sales than you probably would have due to piracy?
