How many times can you install it?

I saw you require the installation domain during the checkout. Does it mean you are stuck with only one installation for license?

yes
you are apparently allowed only one installation per license
avatar Andrea Pro Oct 6. 2007. 8:57 am
that's bad...

One installation per license. You are free to run another instance on your localhost for testing or development.

Isn't there a better anti-piracy mechanism, Ilija?!? I used to have two different ac installations on two different domain, one for personal purposes, one for work. Different themes, different kind of projects, different uses... one word: different.

Is this surprising? One installation plus on local installation is plenty fair, especially for a web app that can be accessed from anywhere.

This model is pretty common and there is nothing strange about it. It is used by many applications (ExpressionEngine, IPB and vBulletin just to name a few).

I really don't have a problem with paying for multple installs. Might be nice if there was some kind of multisite discount or license. I would probably buy a 5 Pack or Ten Pack if something like that existed.

But their (VB) TOS also allow you to have two separate sets of VB files, both pointing to the same database for things like domain aliasing, or if you want to show a specific part of a public forum under a different domain.
Is this allowed / is there a setting to allow domain alias'?
