    I was reading through the description of the new Holiday freebie from Waves and came across an interesting bit of information. You must use the installer software to download and install all waves software now. Not a big deal for a freebie. BUT, it uninstalls all previous instances of ANY Waves software and redownloads and reinstalls registered ones only.
    This is a pretty clever way to trick people into deleting K'd stuff knowing people never read the fine print anymore.

    Yeah you cannot mix legit and non-legit Waves. It's one or the other.
