Got all my new licenses for my Softube purchases...registered and sent em to iLok...only iLok seems to be "down for major improvements" so I can't, as yet, license and use my Softube purchases.  No biggie.  But I'll keep ya posted as to when iLok comes back up and whatever hoops I have to jump through to get working.

Sorry to hear that Ol' pal. Hope they get up and running soon so you can enjoy the new toys. Maybe there will also be some more positive policy changes also but, probably not...

I got a notice a couple days ago that it would happen.
 
I hope they get it all working with the latest OS and browsers.

I just hope it still recognizes me when it gets back up.  I might have to dig up my password.....oh no!  At least the "down for major update" page looks all sparkly new.  We'll see.

I actually received my notice from an aware vendor who wanted it's customers to have a smooth transition.
 
It sure seems like iLok itself should have notified us that this window would open up and leave people stranded.
 
It just seems like further evidence that iLok is nothing but a huge "con" on any purchase decision list.
 
I'm using it... but it seems like extortion performed by an outfit that only really seems to care about itself and maintaining a parasitic symbiosis with developers desperate to not have their work stolen.
 
I get why the developers use it... but iLok stinks. The fact that it can't swap out a website in less than a few minutes suggests to me that they don't have a vital operation and that they are merely accustomed to milking the developers for extortion money. 
 
I anticipate that vendors will iUnlock the stuff in the coming years.
 
best regards,
