This was posted on their Facebook page a short while ago. It looks like attendees at SXSW got the code for a new plugin, apparently called "DevilLoc", and are free to distribute it (requires iLok).

Anybody got the code yet?

And, it looks like the webpage is up, but still no code to be found.

I wouldn't buy that CD or even bother with the hassle and inconvenience of trying to listen to it, even if it was free.

I no longer use any dongled software. I see a connection...

I referred to "bang heads.." - it matches for both....
- but wait - there is more; what if developers will rely back on the ancient systems of protection since C64?
You would need a floppy disk drive again to install the program, because the install disc has a hole punched in at a special position that reads as a damaged sector. The setup installs the special floppy driver and dongle driver. You will also be asked for a serial number, which is printed with dark red color on light red paper. After restarting your PC, insert your dongle and start the program. It will ask you to type the 5th word of line 8 at page 287 of the user manual. Use this word with the included code wheel to gain access to the program. To avoid automatic crack routines, the software will ask you "human" questions from time to time during use like "what is bigger - a tree or an ant?". Dont' forget to type the captcha when answering the question, or your plugin will be terminated (crashing your host).

I do remember software for my old Atari ST that required you to look up a word in the manual..............luckily any company that tried that or any of the above methods today would go out of business in an instant.........

But trying to protect a free product with iLok is a bit different to me than trying to protect a commercial product.......copy protection for freeware is just silly...........
