You know a $450 million US-valued software company’s forum isn’t important to them when it’s outsourced to a SasS company and the server is down on a regular basis. It was down a lot of the day today.

Thank you for the information @peterI don’t understand why, that the code is distributed to a few people, they don’t make a single-use code. It’s technologically possible, and everyone avoids problems, extra work, and administrative tasks.

Get ’em both (of course).In my experience, it starts with buying plugins and ends with buying a website where you discuss plugins. But maybe that’s just me? 😉

His LinkedIn profile shows that he is also CEO of Pulse. So, confirmed, Joe Trupiano owns Audio Plugin Deals, VSTBuzz, Pulse, MusicSoftwareDeals and Sample Logic.

Mystery solved — and I didn’t even need to send a DM to a developer (okay, I was thinking of Kirk Hunter, who just made an exclusive deal to distribute his libraries to this fellow, who is Facebook friends with several of my friends, including Kirk.

As a developer – the problem with issuing a generic discount code (not tied to specific accounts) that are not usage limited (E.G. only X number of uses grant the discount) is that it can be easily abused – such as someone posting it in a public forum.

Wow, @bselack, that language reminds me of the excuses the guy gave while infringing another smaller developer’s intellectual property (a registered trademark). If I’m going to be completely unedited, that experience made me very much not a fan of the guy.
Again, my guess is that the code was for influencers and affiliates in an effort to get…Read More

I just shot the developer some advice. It probably won’t be well received. But I sent it to be helpful. An excerpt:
