Default Cool Edit Pro licensing

This is a spin-off from an earlier thread in which Graham posted the
following link:

http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multime...Edit-Pro.shtml

This link points to a download of the original Syntrillium Cool Edit Pro
audio editing program as it was before Syntrillium was acquired by Adobe
Systems in 2003. It is a 21 day trial version requiring a license for full
activation. Adobe appear to be trying to charge $299 for a full license
which (from memory) is substantially more that Syntrillium used to charge.

Does anybody know how I can get a license for this program at a sensible
price? I have been a licensed user of Cool Edit 2000 for many years.


I very much doubt whether you could get a legal licence for less. Adobe now
own the rights, and if they charge $299 then that's that. Your only other
option is to buy a "second hand" licence, but I don't think that is legal.
