I think it's way out of line to compare a word processing or OS to a rendering program. That's apples and oranges and it doesn't work. The issue is that many of your customers, particularly returning customers are past the baby stages in Poser and instead of encouraging them to run with it, you have hobbled them. With all the emphesis on why are there so few animators, maybe if you watched one work, you would see how this system is useless to them. If we pay for a program we should be able to do the work the program advertizes in a way that make sence in time. This means being able to work on the next scene one one computer while the other computer is rendering. What becomes funny is the warez person doesn't have the dilemma. With their crack or key or whatever they use, instead of 2 machines, the program is working on hundreds. I do understand security, but I do know that locking doors excetera is only a pretence. It says I am not here and would like you to stay out. It only works with decent people who wouldn't have openned the door if it was unlocked without a welcome. Thieves find the lock an invitation. It seems your security system hurts more than benefits you.
