Short answer is yes, I'm asking Lime to reconsider their licensing policy. It may have made sense when Unraid first set it up, but honestly, its restrictive and painful.
I'll spare you the painful clichés but change is at the very heart of this industry.
I'm by no means a licensing expert but I'm happy to a suggestion..... although its rooted in imagination and zero technical expertise so feel free to poke holes in its validity (just don't be rude about it please)
First, Lime should eliminate the perpetual licensing scheme - IMO Lime is leaving money on the table. Why should I be able to move my license to new hardware? That's so not industry standard and how is Lime expected to innovate if you never 'see' customers again?
Why not tie it to the fundamental components of the system? The license could be based on a 'fingerprint' of the core configuration (Motherboard + CPU, etc.) When the user goes to activate, Unraid produces a QR code that is based on this calculation. You take that QR code, purchase a one time activation code that you manually input into the Unraid server UI. It then produces the actual license key which the user needs to store securely. That key will only work if the fingerprint matches so when you reinstall, you get presented with the QR code again but would have the option to reenter the license key the and if it wasn't a close enough match to the hardware fingerprint, you need to purchase a new one.
Just a thought.... be nice
