It could be based on a key basis where if you purchase the flash client it be tied to your key. So for example when you launch dream maker and you have your pager online then you could use flash client if ya purchased it or something like an enscrypted code or something. Anyways theres lots of ways to prevent piracy on this kind of deal and I think that if byond would sell some of its Applications better features then it could make alot more money and actually progress forward. This way all of the software remains free and well to be honest there isnt any perks a membership gives that are actually worth paying for. I would actually gladly pay less for a hub or 2 then have to get a membership which gives me almost nothing and just sits there until I need to use it for making a hub.
