Waves strikes back

In a recent article of Pro Sound News Europe we have learnt about a secret action of Waves against software piracy. Earlier this year, the company rent several private investigators who act as a potential studio client and checked several leading studio in the US and UK. During the demonstration they have secretly filmed as the studio guys showed them their Waves plug-in potential - these video recordings can prove the crime legally as Waves hopes. After the action they have sent out several letters to the studio leaders and let them know about the intent to prosecute, or, alternatively, to pay Waves a reasonable sum. There did not started not a single case until now and we are very curious about the next steps both sides.
