There may be something in what you just wrote.
This is just a guess, but is there a general split between Mac- and PC-heritage users on this issue? Have Mac users have become accustomed to copy protection over the years, while PC users have been acculturated away from it?
Its possible. Maybe the smaller Mac market makes programmers more concerned to prevent casual piracy.
Many of the more expensive audio plugins (VST/RTAS/AU) have challenge-response protection or worse. As do various soft-synths. I don't know if the protection is for both platforms.
