New license management system.

[pc999]

With today's license system you have two licenses out of the box and if you need more (eg because you replaced your PC, or reinstaled your windows, our did a bigger upgrade...) you need to ask for it to ableton, including write a justification and WAIT for a response (we all already had problems near the end of a deadline, our in that "day that we feel inspired and have lots of time", no?).

It would be better if they had a management system of our licenses associated to our online account, there we could have 2-3 licenses and the respective PCs, there we could remove old PC (or their identifications) then authorize new PC. This system is used by others like XLN Audio*.

This way we would be able to have a fast, problem free and intuitive way of have our licenses properly installed and have full freedom of PCs use (no more than 2-3 at a time). They may even have less work/expenses managing our accounts/licenses too.

Better even would be a Reaper like copy protection system but I doubt it will happen...
