I feel your pain info mail bag. It sometimes feels like the peripheral hassles
of licensing etc are outweighing the benefits of using Nuke.
The licensing model is so antiquated that it’s an impediment to using it if you
are a small shop or freelancer and it’s going to start hurting them more
As much as all these annoyances are valid, I do feel the need to play the
devils advocate here. Nuke wasn't designed for freelancers and shouldn't
be treated as such. It was made for use in a studio. So when you bring the
software on set or out of the house, you'll have to work around that
I think with the arrival of Nuke Studio, The Foundry is making a
big effort to enter the advertisement market, in which there are
quite a lot of freelancers.
The sharing/cloud option has been possible for years already with
both FLEXlm and RLM.
If you get a floating license and you can access
I think that the future of software piracy protection is going to be
precisely the Netflix model, which is to stream the software and run the
services off the cloud, with local storage and some processing, of course.

Randy basically addressed this, but none of this flies under the
restrictions we're talking
Mr. Mail Bag has a good point though. I've heard a lot of horror stories on
this subject by now. TF is really pushing it to the point of scaring away
legitimate customers.

I'm sure there are freelancers out there using Nuke is a less than paid for

But it would seem to me that on one side, a freelancer simply can't afford
to pay $9,000 for software, and on the other side, the more people use
Nuke, the
I was in a situation where i was producing tutorials for fxphd and had
talked to the foundry about doing some for Them as well. So tf supplied me
with a license for that. One weekend i was behind on getting a tut out and
the license server broke and i couldnt get a hold of support so i did the

Well soon either Autodesk or Blackmagic will buy The foundry. Maybe Adobe.
Guess we will see if that rumor of Carlyle group wanting to sell is true or

Or the worst fears, that with the current buying spree, The Foundry will
turn into a faceless giant.
I love The Foundry, but mainly because it still holds on to that small
company mentality. Won't last as it continues to grow, fear.

Seems I was wrong with the sarcasm, people having genuine issues.
