Exactly, anyway thier software is so expensive they could afford to hand dsp cards for free with the bundles. This is the reason no-one is bitching about cracked UAD1 plugs. Seems as though they anticipated this from the start.

Still they are going after the easy target instead of stopping it from the start, if they think they are going to get money out of this I reckon they should think again, they are going to destroy some young families when they send out these $75000 legal notices, I don't think someone who could not afford the plugs in the beginning is going to have the cash to settle.

Do the crime do the time but........ this is a cruel and unusual punishment if the end result means destroying young families lives, I can't see a judge doing that to anyone for using some cracked software.

I don't think thier little films will stand up in court either, with all the digital trickery which can be performed these days anything can be faked.
