Thanks Fabio, ok it’s sinking in now… Steinberg simply does not/will not sell a license to someone when just buying a used Cubase install disk …and if they really want or have to have a particular previous version, one will either have to wait for one to come along, or just buy a current version and ask support for an ISO of that previous version.
No wonder they were only asking less than $10 for an install disk in it’s original case! And I guess it would only be useful to those who already have a license to run it if they don’t have an original disk for that version, as opposed to downloading an ISO from the Steinberg site.
Well, it was worth asking…and I learned something along the way.
