Spitfire Audio Licences

[Guido3]

I appreciate what I'm about to ask is a little bit of a grey area but there should hopefully be a good outcome for someone!!

I have quite a few Spitfire libraires which I don't use anymore. I can't sell or transfer the licences but what's to stop me changing the account email and password to that of the new user/owner?

The caveat to this is I don't want anything for the libraries but it seems such a waste to have them and not use them.

I'd be more than happy to donate them to a suitable project but can't do it 'legitimately' through Spitfire themselves.

Does anyone have any experience of this? Is there a workaround?

[Drew Stephenson]

Have you asked Spitfire?

[Guido3]

Single user licence which cannot be transferred. Maybe my desire to 'donate' might change things. I'll try and get hold of a human!!

Yep, I suspect any website T&Cs will be typical legalese but if you can get hold of a person they may well be more amenable.

[Guido3]

OK. Spitfire have come back to me said that they are prepared to merge my account with that of the new recipient or I could simply change the email address and password associated with my account.

I'm hoping there is someone on this forum who works with or knows of a suitable project (youth/charity or even someone who just needs a helping hand) who would get the most out of these libraries.

Let me know

[Drew Stephenson]

Gosh that's quite a stack of stuff!
Might be worth dropping The Elf a line as I think he has a connection with a music charity/thing.

[Guido3]

Thanks Drew - I've sent him a PM.

[IAA]

Quite agree it’s a stack of stuff and v well regarded stuff at that.

Guido3 that’s a lovely thing to do and I’m very glad that spitfire agreed to help.

All done!!

I'm over the moon they've gone to someone who will put them all to great use for many people to enjoy.

I won't go into much detail but I lost both my parents to Dementia and one of the projects Elf works with is a choir who perform for people suffering with it.

Perfect!

Nice.

[Martin Walker]

Perfect result Guido3!

[Eddy Deegan]

An excellent outcome! Well done and it's good to hear that Spitfire were willing to help also

[The Elf]

Many thanks, Guido. These libraries will doubtless find use on all kinds of projects. It's humbling to witness such altruism.

And thanks to Spitfire for arranging this.

Completely agree, and nice one, Paul, for helping to facilitate. This is a nice story to read in depressing times.
