Call Microsoft and tell the you think you should have a 2 license agreement on xp, or autocad, or microstation, Pcdj, pckj.........
They love to laugh at people trying to get something for nothing.
If you were a carpenter....... would you built 2 houses for someone that only lives in one at a time. a summer house and a winter house.
I am not mtu or speaking for Mtu but I work with programming everyday. Most people think of software as a plastic Disk and as serial number. and Yes after it is produced that is what it is unless someone it continually trying to improve it and add the new features someone wants added.
Programmers arent cheap, and Not being in the business you can't even Imagine the expense that goes into a program like this. If you noticed this program used to sell for $450.00....... they reduced the price dramatically after they recapped their costs (can you see microsoft doing that).
Do you really expect a free copy of a product, a company has cut the price in half, get real

Well I just bought the one touch Maxtor drive (probably a $175.00 mistake) and I am going to backup the song files and mtu data base to go with the files.
I did not expect to get this kind of criticism about the liscensing thing. It just seems logical to me to have automatic ability to have two for a professional hoster. MTU has crashed all but 2 days for the first week and a half every show, right in the middle of a song everytime except once when it crashed after the end of the last song in the play list when I had to force it. It got hung up so I exited the program and regrouped in about 45 seconds. I am getting good at recovering. I know I do not want to ever reload all my music ever again, so I am doing this backup just for that, plus I would like to review some of my files at home so I can reload some of the discs which are playing very badly in hoster in hopes that they will play better, some have bad lyrics plus there are numerous data base problems I want to fix before deciding to print hoster style books. There are a lot of reasons to make a program like this to be usable in two systems, I would just like it to be thought about and maybe a satisfactory solution can come out of this thread. Because also I want to print the first batch at home, I will need my hoster to operate where my printer is, I am pretty sure most kj's don't have their printer at their show.
I understand your comments and they have been well taken, thanks.
