Well, why for some people is an argument “cheap”, if it is agaimst their opinion, but “valid”, if it supports one´s opinion…? Mr. “Pro” paaltio also seems to have difficulties with that…
Sure Steinberg can implement that, but obviously they don´t want to - said several times already. And “everyone else does it” is simply an invalid argument - in both directions - it´s just, for some people it seems only true in one direction.
I personally don´t care, if someone likes the dongle or not. And I don´t really want to think about why people buy Cubase, if it´s such a problem for them. Fact is, it has been said by Steinberg several times already, that the dongle will stay - and it will probably be the same, when that discussion comes up again in 3 or 4 months
