Seems reasonable, I cant believe this is still going on! Is there any hope for change????? AHHHHH


In the mean time, why not buy yourself a 2nd iLok (it makes sense to have a spare any way)?

That way you can finish work at the studio, sync your iLok, and move your Pro Tools asset off the Studio's iLok, depositing it in your account.

When you get home (or wherever) and need to work on your Laptop, log in to your iLok account, and move your Pro Tools asset from your account, and on to your 2nd iLok.

That way you never have to transport an iLok with a valuable asset on it - the asset is always in "the cloud" during transit, the Studio iLok never leaves the studio, and your 2nd iLok never leaves your alternative location (unless you really need it on a plane etc).
