Want to buy license. Have some questions.

Postby nothsa » Sun Sep 18, 2011 6:41 am

Hi,

I'm wanting to buy a license key to be able to use my Android phone with Subsonic after 30 days. However, there are reports on the Android app page of people paying via the Donate button on the Subsonic website, and then not receiving a license key for the Subsonic server.

With that in mind, I have a few questions:
  • How can I guarantee that I receive a license key after paying?
  • Is the process automated, or does someone have to approve the donation and manually send me a key?
  • Is the license connected to my e-mail address in any way? (This might determine which e-mail address I use to pay)
  • Can I use the license on multiple computers, or do I need a separate key for each installation? (My home desktop, office desktop, and my laptop)

Thanks
nothsa

The license for the "GOLD" features is for the server so you need only 1 license. This will allow you to carry on using the extended features such as api, own domain name, no adverts etc after the trial period.
The licence key is sent to the email address specified. If it is automated I don't know but I received mine within 1 hr of hitting the paypal button.
If you do not receive or lose the key email Sindre and I am sure he will resend the activation email.
NOTE
You make the donation via your Subsonic web interface not sure what happens if you use this sites donation button?

Thanks for the help, BKKKPewsey. After finding out that this project is open-source, I went through the code and figured out how to generate the code myself, so I can just generate my own if one is not sent to me after the donation =)

To answer my own questions:
  • The key is sent to your e-mail address automatically, and if it's not, you can contact the developer and he will get it to you
  • As stated above, automatic
  • Yes, the license that is generated based on your e-mail. You must enter your e-mail address and license key when registering the server on your computer
  • Yes, it is possible to use your key on multiple computers
