I don't think people understand the problem (maybe everyone has a BIAB inferiority complex). The problem has absolutely nothing to do with BIAB in any way shape or form. Trust me I trust BIAB. Like I said, I have a friend who I have known for 32 years who has been using BIAB for years (I would say at least 10 years and he just upgraded to get the full disk drive). My concern has to do with my computer setup and the fact that I do not have time unfortunately to fiddle with it nor the time to replace it if it is going to create a problem. This is why I wish they had a trial download. It would be so much simpler and this thread would not even exist if they had that trial. It would be easy, I download it, it does not work, I blame my computer and later when I get a new computer (maybe 3 years from now) I download it again and it works. This is the industry standard which I am use to and I have no complaints about it. Maybe that is because I left the music business at age 26 to become a programmer so it seems like the norm to me and 100% logical in my way of thinking.
Having said all that maybe that test will work. What I might do is try and figure out how to do that test before I down load it. If there is a manual out there (another industry standard these days) I will poke through it first on the weekend when I have a bit more time.
I will say it again, I think BIAB sales would be higher if they had a trial version mainly because it is a good program and it then becomes so easy to try. The way PGmusic has it set up it becomes more difficult. I have probably downloaded 25 trials that I uninstalled that did not work for some reason or another (it is fast and painless and easily forgotten within 5 minutes). That is a lot less time that this thread has taken and less time than trying to figure out how to get the money back. The good thing about BIAB is if it does not work I know to blame my computer and try it later.
