Isn't this just plain illegal? Since I assume you only once bought Finale full, and then bought upgrades, you still only have one serial number. Although you are obviously permitted to run as many different versions of Finale as you own, I doubt very much that you can give away an early

Many thanks for viewpoints given on plug-ins. As a frivolous aside, I wonder who has the earliest version of Finale still in working order? By now it would be a bit like a 1948 Jaguar!- or would it? The earliest I know of was called -I think, 3.1. (Or was that Windows?) But I'm just a new (old)
