The amount of effort is dependent on situation.
Of course . . . one could send out a standalone of a stack to find out one's
potential client's
Mac Address, then make a standalone for him/her that checks against that Mac
Address; although
that seems a bit mean as when his/her computer goes 'pop' s/he will have to pay
out all over again.
DRM should never lock a client out because their hardware changed. Binding to
a MAC address is also not reliable. They can be spoofed and some systems
change their MAC address on every startup. A system that can adapt to hardware
changes, not knock the client out, but let you know that this is taking place
so you can make a decision on how to proceed is what we are using.
If one does not tie a piece of software to a piece of hardware there is
probably no way to prevent multiple copies being distributed across many
machines.
