  8. overpriced on Ask Slashdot: Copy Protection Advice For ~$10k Software? · · Score: 0

    if you're trying to sell it for 10K a pop your over charging - try selling for $100 dollars and getting a much bigger userbase.
    what makes it work 10k?
    if you want to sell to a niche market then your going to have to use other methods - i.e. hardware dongle , ability to use stuff that is hosted on your servers only or other stuff that is going to cost time money and effort to achieve. YMMV
