Very much agreed re. the copy protection.  That caused probs (for
another reason: a corrupted hard disk) for a professional composer I
know; and for him down-time is money and possibly missed deadlines.

Admittedly he is now more disciplined about backups, but his Sibelius
was out of action for a few days.  I sorted out the disk itself (at
least to keep him going until he was able to take a complete backup,
re-format and a full restore) but couldn't do anything about Sib.
