Re: how can i protect my code from the duplicaters

@Jeremy: I would be wary of allowing any software licensed annually to
be hosted on another server. Apps licensed in this way tend to be more
like an SAAS app and as such would be centrally stored to allow for
maintenance, upgrades etc.

If it is a plugin that we're talking about then the license tends to
get you a period of support and access to upgrades, so to let your
license expires means you can continue to use the plugin without
upgrades/fixes.

Have you ever, or no of anyone else, who has bought code where you had
to decrypt it (try finding a shared hosting service that has ioncube/
zend guard installed)? Maybe you could have a call from the remote
server to a database on your server which checked if a license is
valid?

HTH, Paul
