In spite of your "honest" thinking, you have overlooked a VERY IMPORTANT point. We have MANY users who want to run multiple copies for different shows at the same time! Thus, it is not possible to simply offer your request.

Afterall, the name HOSTER was chosen to indicate the product is for... professional Hosts! We will not discount multiple copies. If you need to run multiple copies, you need to buy multiple copies.

As soon as we release 2.124, hopefully to final testing today, we will start on a way to run your Registration Code and Hoster on a second machine for 15 days, when your show computer fails. This is the way we are going to solve the failure problem.

We have future plans that would also reveal that your request is infeasible. Trust us. We absolutely need and WANT your feedback as to your needs... and the reasoning behind your request. However, please do not expect us to always implement your suggestion. Suggestions are always listened to, and evaluated. Many times we have done exactly what a single user has suggested.

However, in the case of Hoster and failure backup, this is a VERY complex subject. Foremost, you MUST be able to use the same Registration Code or future plans will fail. We will have a solution in Hoster 2.2 or 2.3, which will follow 2.1 rather quickly. Heck, we're tired of all this security too! We want to get on with other major features.
