Of course, if you like the plugin, you could buy it and just save all the license info while running your current install. You could install the properly licensed version if/when you get a new computer or when convenient.Following up on my post above - I emailed customer service about Atoms just.. working for me, without being in trial mode, no piracy involved, no 5 seconds of silence occurring, and they said it just happens sometimes, sometimes some people are able to use some plugins.
They said it's not something they can track, not a huge deal, and is so rare that they're not able to look into it as they need to allocate their resources to more widespread issues/products.
Makes sense. So now I just have Atoms for free without piracy involved. It just works.
If it just works there's no point in me buying a licence, I would have to uninstall and reinstall just to even test if it would ask me to choose between licence/trial mode.
So that's cool as heck, wonder how it happened though.
I had something similar happen way back in the dark ages with a massive Waves product; I had paid for about half the plugins, but the one's I hadn't bought installed and worked fine as well. The Waves support person said something similar to what Baby Audio's rep told you. The way I handled it (because there wasn't an easy deinstall on this without possibly messing with my legitimate purchase,) was to just avoid using those products for which I hadn't paid. It just seemed like the best ethical choice.
