Thanks for this great thread.
I'm in the process of upgrading from DP 2.7 to DP 7 and have found that I cannot upgrade my Waves NPP 4 even if I wanted to (unless I spend $195 on DP8) because Waves no longer supports ilok. So I'll be getting used to MW after years of working with the L1, C1 and Trueverb. The posts here have given me hope that the transition will be not too painful.
Thanks again

I thought (IIRC) that Waves gives you a choice of where to store your authorizations. I mean, mine are on my iLok, so it's still supported AFAIK.

One more Interwebz acronym and I'd have the trifecta. YMMV.
