Hiya Lisa.  No, I'm one of the lucky ones.  Nothing got flooded, wet,
moistened, etc.  Some of the engineer's home and/or vehicles weren't so lucky
however. :^/

To answer your question, its yes and no.  The authoring and playback modules
of MM require a dongle, with the exception of the MM300 bundled with the
A4000Ts and certain configurations of A1200s in Europe.  The bundled version
does not require a dongle.  The Player module is redistributable, however, 
some restrictions apply.  Specifically, if the project produced with MM is
for profit, a small royalty fee applies.

Producers interested in using the MM300 Player in a for profit production, need
to contact the nearest Scala office.  A list of offices can be found at the
websites at www.scala.com or www.scala.no.
