Copy protection after downloading from torrent site

[Edo]

I've read everything regarding Copy Protection in this forum (FAQ and Threads).

I found that even if it's a pirate version it will work, but it will work differently. Not less effectively. But it will work to prevent you from doing things that are illegal, through educating you and other means.

By educating, I mean that most people who pirate things do so because they have no understanding of the point of view of the content producer; only that of the consumer. I am trying to get the consumer to understand a little better what the producer goes through to make them, so that the value of the program becomes more apparent, and they will be more willing to pay for it.

I'm also caught between a rock and a hard place with what to make the anti-piracy measures do. Too far and I give myself a black eye and drive away customers. Too little and there's nothing that happens. So I have taken a very unusual route and focused primarily on education, without using any negative programming such as guilt, shame and fear, and doing nothing negative even if someone does pirate it.

There is one thing the program will do differently if you are falling into the definition of what will trigger it, but the program will still work for you.

Shannon I'm amaze with your positive thinking and how much you value trust. Other producers will eventually create a very perfect Copy Protection where when one doesn't pay for it, it will be completely useless.

If you use the program, and don't get the intended benefit, I don't expect you to pay for it, even if it was pirated. I can do that because I know my stuff works, and because it's unfair to brainwash people into paying for something they haven't benefited from. Instead, the program encourages you to return fair value for value received, by paying for your copy.

It is clearly said that I must pay-fair use-to any sub that benefited me. The subs that I got benefits and used are (AM 5.0 , DAOS 4G, OGSF 4G, US 3G, BASE 3G). Does that mean I only pay for those 5 subs?

The effects of the anti-piracy routines are self limiting. When you stop, they stop. It would be pretty dirty of me to make it so you had to buy a sub to erase any effects.

I stop pirating your sub. Totally. Does that mean I've deactivated Copy Protection?

The anti-piracy measures in the subliminals that include them are designed to cause people who would pirate our subliminals, and commit piracy in general, to stop doing so.

Way before I know about your Copy Protection I have urges to buy your subs legally and sure enough I bought it and stop doing so.

To not trigger it, you should of course be using a legal copy that was paid for as many times as specific people have copies of it.

I can't imagine to the first person who shared AM 5.0 in torrent sites. How many copies does he must pay? LOL. Ok, say somebody in his situation does he only must pay 1 copy of AM 5.0 for himself and doing everything he can to take down AM 5.0 from running in the wild?

Do hope for your further explanation Shannon. Thanks.
