VSL Announcement: Moving to iLok Key / Cloud - We are live!

@Ben Genuine curiosity, does it cost the vendor more to do a 2 machine activation option for iLok versus the cloud/dongle option?

Just trying to understand why some vendors don’t adopt the multiple machine license approach.
 
If you need it now, get it! The eLicenser key is currently sold as low as possible on our website + you'll get a voucher for the next purchase (so you will not spend more money compared to getting it later).
Okay great thanks!
 
@Ben I try to follow the thread and also read through VSL site, but it's still somehow not clear for me:
  1. iLok migration is still not finished, right? I mean if I buy your products today, I still have to have dongle, but once iLok is active I can switch to online licence, right?
  2. Regarding VSL pianos, I only want to buy and keep one, but not sure which one I'll like the most. Is it OK for me to buy 4 pianos individually (not bundle), keep the one I like the most and return the rest before 14 day period? Is there any fee to be paid when returning?

Yes!

If anyone else is interested, I've just recieved reply from VSL support confirming that above scenario is possible and no fee is charged when returning.
 
Does anyone know if you have to activate a VSL library purchase within a certain timeframe? I use iLok and really do not want to have to buy yet another dongle so I was thinking of making a purchase and waiting to activate it until VSL switches to iLok
 
It would be great if this also means demos will be more readily available. I'd really like to try Dimension Strings for myself. Maybe this was mentioned earlier, VERY SORRY if so.
Has anything more been said about this? I truly do hope the iLok move will be accompanied by more demo possibilities.
 
The change will be announced exactly 5 minutes after I've finally found the time to work on my template and just installed my new VEpro licenser dongle.

Hehe. Since their announcement, I've been overhauling my disabled template to a 4 Server VEPRO setup (will likely still need to add a 5th and/or 6th actually). I just bit the bullet and ordered a Vienna Key and an iLok for each. It takes so long to setup this workflow that it was worth the extra $30-$45 per server.
 
Soon. We have made quite some progress!
I am excited, I have had nothing but issues trying to install the big bang orchestra (not your fault) and ended up just deleting it all from my computer. I use ilok and I am excited to see if I can finally try your software.
 
I just learned about this news and immediately digged out the dongle that's been sleeping in my house for ages. I hope it stays alive until the ilok is available. Don't wanna buy insurance now...

Doesn’t matter, you don’t have to surrender your old e-licenser licences - you’ll just be issued with new iLok ones…..
