Getting Started (AKA What is the best...?) • Re: Plugins/Companies using serial or keyfile copy protection

There is BBCode support for lists:

Code:

[list=1][*]The copy protection must use either a serial number or a keyfile.[*]The copy protection must not tie itself to anything. For example, there are now developers claiming they only use serial number copy protection, but then the copy protection ties itself to a particular CPU or other hardware. This fits within the realm of challenge/response. The software should not restrict you to using only the one computer. If you buy a new computer, you should be able to use it.[*]The software should not require any form of calling home to authenticate. In other words, if a company were to go out of business, you should be able to pull a copy of the software and serial number or keyfile off of your backup drive, and authenticate the software.[/list]

Code:

[list][*]ACMT Plugins[*]Acon Digital[*]Apisonic Labs[*]Audio Damage[*]AudioThing[*]Audiority / Polychrome DSP[*]Blue Cat Audio[*]CableGuys[*]Devious Machines[*]FabFilter[*]Fuse Audio Labs[*]GForce[*]HY-Plugins[*]KV331 Plugins[*]KarmaFX[*]Kiive Audio[*]Klanghelm[*]Loomer[*]Martinic[*]Melda Plugins[*]Naskt Plugins[*]Safari Pedals[*]Sinevibes[*]SirAudio[*]Sonic Projects[*]SugarBytes[*]TAL-Software Plugins[*]TBProAudio[*]Tone2[*]ToneBoosters[*]U-he plugins[*]United Plugins[*]Valhalla Plugins[*]Venomode[*]Voxengo[*]Xfer[/list]Serial Number/Keyfile:[list][*]ApulSoft[*]Audio Realism[*]DMGAudio[*]eaReckon[*]LetiMix[*]Madrona Labs[*]Plogue[*]Polyverse Music[*]Reveal Sound[*]Sonic Charge[*]Surreal Machines[*]Tokyo Dawn Labs[*]Tone Projects[/list]No Copy Protection:[list][*]Aberrant DSP[*]Auburn Sounds[*]Inphonik[*]Kazrog[*]Psychic Modulation[/list]Needs Confirmation:[list][*]Cakewalk Dimension Pro[*]Waldorf[/list]Other:[list][*]HornetPlugins (demos needs a kind of plugin manager with user and pw, while full versions doesn't)[/list]

For convenience, I have regenerated the lists using BBCode in alphabetical order and separated anomalies into separate categories, so you can copy and paste them as-is into the original post. Feel free to modify them as desired, as I have no intention of voluntarily maintaining them.
