Because then the clients who "aren't going to be their clients anyway", give it to their friends who "aren't going to be there clients anyway" and so on and so on.
Well, they should not be doing that. I have not.
There is a reason URC doesn't sell their products to the general public. It's because they don't want you to have them until we program them.
So then why do they allow dealers to make decisions on whether or not to give out the software? They could easily try to lock it down like Crestron, AMX or RTI.
Gotta look at the big picture.
I think URC sees the big picture, although not as clearly as either side would probably like. They understand that they make great remote that is easy enough for skilled DIY'ers to program and do not want to lose those sales. As for the price I have paid, no it is not retail, but it is not as low as I could have gotten them off ebay.
