I'm not anti iLok, but by far my favorite method is simple serial numbers for sure. iLok is the easiest activation with a new computer with no comparison though.It may have been a simple issue of a reboot and/or problem with ILOK, but unsure ATM. I'll look more into it once I find the time. This is the first and last time I use ILOK, incidentally. It was already installed for NFA's Generate and I seem to recall Loom 2 asking for it as well.
If a company can't monetize their products without beating people over the head, they should choose another avenue and/or maybe FLOSS their products if they insist on making them.
About ILOK and/or whatnot; remember this if nothing else: Technology is supposed to work for people, rather than the other way around. Society doesn't owe you a living, via your product.
Mostly I would be surprised if the drop down menus work for you, the only way it works here is in Bitwig, because it sandboxes the VSTi version into it's own native process and doesn't translate it to native like the AU version in other dAWs does. so it doesn't suffer that way.
