Hi!

Has somebody thought of adding some sort of copy protection to a PHP 
project? I guess it would be difficult to accomplish.

Say you have some PHP scripts for mantaining a web site. You don't want the 
ISP simply copies the scripts for each web site he wishes to use it for but 
buys a valid license for each copy. 

A solution would be a license key that guarantees the scripts are being 
used only on a specific web site / domain name the license has been buyed 
for.

One problem is that PHP is source code, it isn't stored in compiled form, 
and a copy protection could be easily located and removed I think. Ok, 
there is Zend encoder but it is very expensive in my opinion.

Are there any tools, articles? Did ever have anyone this problem?
