Still, it gave me a rather interesting view into the Steinberg kitchen, especially the stability and the kind of mistakes which are being made by their programmers. Fortunately international nor (most) national laws don't work this way and protect people from it, in fact some would even come close to describing such techniques as plain out swindle if money or other goods would exchange hands.

Like dealing with contracts which need to be signed by both parties yet don't think you'll get a signed copy back from them the legal stuff is said to work both ways in the contract, but all they're leaving you with is nothing. I've had the unique opportunity to get to known Steinberg a little bit better from a more business-like view in the role of a beta tester, and to be quite honest I didn't like what I saw one bit.
