Let me know what Inphonik says, I've been meaning to email them for the same purpose. f**king BPA is a joke, I thought something had gone wrong on their site when the package I clicked to download (RX950) was Beatport Access instead.kidslow wrote: ↑Fri Dec 29, 2023 7:29 am I cannot find another vendor in my Plugin Boutique purchase history subject to Beatport Access installation other than Inphonik. Inphonik has very simple installers when purchased directly, and in the past on Plugin Boutique. Has anyone successfully gotten a separate downloader from Plugin Boutique by contacting their support, per the fine print on the product page?
I made a support request to PB for a separate installer immediately after purchase and attached that atrocity they tried to foist down on me 11243_Plugin+Boutique+-+Beatport+Access+-+Mac+0.10.3-master-1047.pkg ... to the request. Call it an act of protest. I also made it clear that if they persist in making me use that for updates, I will take my business elsehwere. Don't know who they are trying to help or protect, but I know it's not me.If you purchased RX1200 after October 26th 2023, please contact our Customer Care team and we'll be able to provide you with a direct installer for your software.
I separately made a request to Matheiu at Inphonik through his website, requesting a means to transfer those licenses purchased through PB to his sendowl system and download my licensed updates directly from him in the future. I notice PB is one release behind for RX950, at least on the update page they show me compared to his release notes 1.1.2 vs 1.1.3. They are often behind. I didn't install their malware to find out if it's up to date, which would be the one useful function it should have. In the future I will purchase Inphonik plugins directly from the developer.

Inphonik never responded, but I suspect my email was buried in holiday delivery, and I never followed up. PB did provide just a download without the Beatport Access malware.
