I just received an email from the manager at the reseller with an apology for the runaround I've been getting.
However, according to him, Autodesk does indeed require a signed paper contract. Apparently Autodesk believes its much easier for large studios to deal with resellers rather than have automated subscriptions because of all the effort required to deal with multiple licenses. And while I understand the thought process behind it, I still think that's the way things were done in the 1990's. If you're using RLM or whatever Autodesk uses, does it make a difference if you have 1, 5, or 500 licenses being served from your license server? Isn't it just a single file? Oh well. I guess we should be thankful they don't require physical media to be shipped out with each renewal or dongles for every license!
