       So Novation decided to pull several plugins I own, and instead of going "they're now free" they went "THEY CAN NEVER BE ACTIVATED AGAIN" and this is the kind of bullshit that should be illegal.If I bought your product, either you issue me a refund, you keep your fucking activation servers alive forever, or you release a "final" version that's free (like Kilohearts did with their Kilohearts One synt).There is no middle ground here. And you should *always* go that last route: "It's now free".

       @TheRealPomax The flipside of DRM/SaaS everyone warned of but nobody wants to talk about.
