A witch says,

Bad news : We found that Steinberg rebuids the 4GB "Models" file in every
updates till now. We have to include it in the installer ;(

(So they (SteinBorg) found a way to make money when people download there stuff ??? )

 

How does one make money from uploading an extra 4GB?

 

Try to read. Then count - 1 upload .. +++10000 downloads
No, just fun.
I remember years ago NI Pro50 had a "Mystery" file (50MB) just for copy protection. We had Modems.
Before there was Propellerheads Rebirth with a 100MB file that includes incrypted codes.
Maybe it's just a ?Try? to prevent "Warez" ?

good news for katz-rapid-nitrogator hawkers

 

This thread is barely intelligible. If you are implying they make money because Rapidgator and other hosts pay download * number of parts, that doesn't make any sense. If anything, who makes money is the uploader. Even worse, Steinberg loses money because bandwidth costs a lot of money for every legit user they have. And those are probably more than the people pirating it, as crazy as it might sound.

 

If their sales and existing user numbers dropped to even close to 50% after changing everything they did at Cubase 11, they would have gone right back to something intrusive again.

 

Perhaps he was misunderstood, if Stain Boy is doing this to push the installer size up this means longer downloads, more bandwidth, more drive space. This is probably to annoy the casual "try before buy" user with gb of extra downloads.

This of course will not deter others but still interesting.

 

Who is Steinborg? Stijnberg? Steemborg? Stainbrock?

 

But 12.0.20 works ok with old silk emulator. Or I miss something ?
