I think the damage has been done Steve, all these trackers are hosting a torrent for what looks to be your gog files. I don't think it would be possible to stop them all-
tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announce
tracker.publicbt.com:80/announce
tracker.publicbt.org:80/announce
tracker.ilibr.org:6969/announce
tracker.torrentbay.to:6969/announce
tracker.bittorrent.am:80/announce
209.50.48.13:80/announce
sombarato.org:6969/announce
tracker.thepiratebay.org:80/announce
not possible to stop them all, but definitely possible to go to town on the guy(s) who uploaded them. Why doesn't everyone make it all traceable, it would seriously dissuade a lot of piracy
Not sure if the deal is still on, go check it out. And look further back in the thread to see about the WAV's and GOG's.
has anyone gotten back around the 403 fobidden error?
is it part of the fact that 9 million people are dling these, or is it something completely different? like once you get into the dl site, you better not close it?
thanks!

Since I'm sure it's going to come up in the not to soon future, I'll ask the question now.
Steven - for the people that buy the EX base package now to get a foot into the door of the EX expandable world, are they going to be dissapointed as they add expansions only to find that GOG and WAV files are missing. I know you have been pretty clear that this is the direction going forward with Trigger, so I think it's worth asking. Say someone plays around with base EX for a month, then decides to buy Metal & More, will they get the GOG/WAV files or are they out of luck?
Sorry to be a "Debbie Downer", I was just going over everything in my head and this was a lingering question since you have been so firm about this move going forward. This could potentially effect me as well since I was considering purchasing a few more expansions soon.
Thanks Steven - if you could provide an answer it would be greatly appreciated.

I can confirm that I purchased the software via AudioMidi.
If I cant get on to the server by tonight, I may as well download the Warezed version.
P2P would have been a great way to launch this Steven.
For the record, Cubase 5 was cracked 1 week after I purchased the full version. Back when I was younger, I'll admit that I use to Warez things to try it out.
When I got older, I decided to purchase software (and nowadays, having updates is gold with regged software)
I can afford to buy it now. Those who cant, are your pirates. Im not condoning it, but it IS the reason why I purchased Cubase 5 (after using 3 for a long time). Maybe it'll convince some pirate to purchase stevens deluxe package?!?
Im glad to hear Steven is doing something like this. It puts his name out, and gives him BIG exposure and more exposure means more money = better products via R&D.
Now, hopefully this server debacle gets fixed. Im shudder to think of the volume demands right now.
Offhand Steven, any numbers of sales figures just from this promo?
why the hell would someone steal a product that is already a steal at $20 ??
