Cubase is going dongleless

[Mathematics]

For those not in the loop and had issues with their dongle licensing...well, your prayers have been answered. This is straight from Steinberg:

"INTRODUCING STEINBERG LICENSING
Simply start your software, sign in with your Steinberg ID, and you’re up and running instantly — with no need for a hardware key or dongle. Steinberg Licensing is simple, quick, and flexible."

Yup. Simple with plenty of telemetry. That's a cynical assumption/remark, not fact.

A maxim in need of a categorical imperative...I'll budget this good deed.

"Today, many musicians are able to use a laptop or other portable computer as their main music-making computer: but more and more these devices have limited USB ports, and plugging in a hardware key is inconvenient or even impossible.

Today, many musicians have two or more computers: but the eLicenser system only allows the software to be used on a single computer with a Soft-eLicenser, or on the computer to which the USB-eLicenser is connected.

Today, many musicians expect to be able to try out a new software tool simply by downloading it from the web: but customers have had to buy a USB-eLicenser before they can try out Cubase Pro."

Tell me you're a C student...
