1.0 out of 5 stars Non-Transferrable Software License, November 27, 2008

This review is from: MakeMusic Finale 2008 Hybrid LabPack - 5 User (CD-ROM)

Finale used to be cool and I was a loyal customer who upgraded every year for $169 or $199 in later years. Then they stopped their license transfers which means should you ever decide you need cash during hard times, you are not allowed to sell their software. For this reason I am giving this software one star. I invested literally hundreds of dollars and then they ripped me off with their unorthodox non-transferrable license. Years ago you could buy an older version for less from a private owner, then upgrade with the company's permission. Now they just will tell you all out that you can't sell their software.
