It would be nice if SB could patch their old programs to run without the dongle. Not an easy task, I know. But it would probably require far less resources to do thát, rather than dealing with a lot of angry customers and supporting a vast amount of dongle users in the future and give them “individual solutions”. Plus, it would give more incentive for new people to buy the newest software when those same people could have the freedom to use any of the old software, if they don’t feel like joining the rat race of constantly upgrading their computers, operating systems and software versions, just to keep up.
