I'm on a shoot Wednesday night so won't be able to attend the discussion.
But please add my voice to the rest who are complaining about the copy
protection scheme. I cart my machine around a lot; I have dozens of
programs on the hard disk and I do NOT lug manuals around. I therefore
will not purchase the Disney product, which I otherwise would have bought.
I agree with you completely that guest programmers should not feel like
they will have rocks thrown at them when they are kind enought to attend an
online discussion. But the message is clear from the users: copy
protection schemes are unacceptable and many of us will not purchase
products that contain them.

PS – it should be made clear to him that everyone knows the problem is not
with him, it's with Disney; but he should know who to relay it to.
