Upon
payment and registration for any TPA Software product, users are
no longer entitled to replacement registration numbers for
any one given program. However, users can purchase a new registration number for
each. The reason for this change is AOL has made
their software based service free (as of July 4, 2006), and
it would be impossible for TPA software to police how many
accounts any given customer has. Since AOL is free,
there is no responsibility for owning an AOL account any
longer. Anyone can have one at any time (and
presumably multiple accounts) which would leave us with
the responsibility of maintaining a database of who has
multiple accounts and who does not...and we are no longer
prepared to be giving away for free replacement
registration numbers as it would be too easy to close and
account and request a free number for a "new account" and
then reopen the old one. In this case, someone has
obtained a free version of our software without purchasing
it like everyone else. Because AOL has made it too
easy for anyone to have multiple account, we must adjust
our policy as such. ALL second (or third) account
you may have will require a separate registration each.
No exceptions will be may for anyone at anytime in regard
to this policy, so don't ask. There is no way for us
to police this kind of thing and more to the point, it's
not our job. My recommendation, should you desire
multiple accounts is to the the twenty or so bucks saved
by not paying for AOL anymore and use it to purchase (and
more importantly, support) your favourite AOL add on.
It allows us to invest time and effort into new versions, newer features
and so our programmer can feed his kids. :-)
We apologize if this does not bode well with some people,
but the bottom line is that TPA Software and WavMan cannot
to continue to exist with making a profit, not only so
employees get paid, but so that new features can be
developed and the company can continue to exist. No
continuing support means TPA Software and WavMan could
cease to exist and everybody loses.
Thanks for the continued
support and understanding.
