I have Amplitube and CSR. I pity there's no ilok authorisation for those. I think that reinstalling software with the ilok is much easier and I like having the option to be able to use the software in any studio that I work in.

Basically with the ilok there's no install limitation, there's just a software 'startup' limitation.
